TypeScript: { minimized: true } is not allowed by type definition.

Bug report

README says that info takes { minimized: true } option. However, the type definition only takes string value.

Actual Behavior

This code described in README causes an error Type 'boolean' is not assignable to type 'string'.ts(2322) in TypeScript.

  plugins: [
    new CopyPlugin({
      patterns: [
        "relative/path/to/file.ext",
        {
          from: "**/*",
          // Terser skip this file for minimization
          info: { minimized: true },
        },
      ],
    }),
  ],

Expected Behavior

info: { minimized: true } should be a valid Pattern.

How Do We Reproduce?

Write webpack.config.ts in TypeScript and use CopyWebPackPlugin with info: { minimized: true } option.

Thank you for quickly addressing the issue!

I've just tested with 10.2.3, but the problem is not solved. #664 modifies type CopiedResult, but the type error seems happen on type Info which is not modified. Could you please confirm it again?

We have any https://github.com/webpack-contrib/copy-webpack-plugin/blob/master/types/index.d.ts#L23

ObjectPattern.info references Info https://github.com/webpack-contrib/copy-webpack-plugin/blob/master/types/index.d.ts#L268 which still take [key: string]: string;.
