### How to reproduce these conditions
**Failing test unit, Stackblitz demonstrating the problem**
n/a
**Steps to set up and reproduce**
- Create a new angular app using the latest version of the cli
`ng new angular18-firebase-test`
- Add AngularFire
`ng add @angular/fire`
- Follow the guidance [here](https://github.com/angular/angularfire/blob/master/docs/auth.md#convenience-observables) to add the convenience observables
**Sample data and security rules**
n/a
### Debug output
** Output from `firebase.database().enableLogging(true);` **
n/a
** Screenshots **

### Expected behavior
The convenience observables should be properly typed as they were in **v17.1.0**
Note in this screenshot how the IDE properly recognizes the types when using the previous release:

### Actual behavior
The observables are cast as `any` (see screenshot).
_Edit 1_
Upon further investigation, it appears the problem is related to how the `rxfire/auth` module in this file is imported. Following the import through to the definition of the module takes me to a type definition file in **v17** but instead goes to an esm module in **v18**. See related screenshot here:

Still unsure why this is happening.
_Edit 2_
Eureka! It appears in [this commit](https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/commit/f452589e2c921448b76a138a5f34ba92ad05e297) the AngularCLI now defaults to setting the `moduleResolution` compiler option in the `tsconfig.json` file to `"bundler"` by default thus causing the module to get resolved differently. Switching back to the value of `"node"` allows for the proper import of typed entities but likely causes problems with the areas targeted in that aforementioned commit.
Guía de contribución
Línea de trabajo
Comienza con los observables de conveniencia documentados en docs/auth.md y sigue la importación rxfire/auth utilizada por el módulo Auth. Compara la resolución con el moduleResolution "bundler" del tsconfig.json de Angular CLI 18 con v17.1.0 y el commit de Angular CLI enlazado; se considera terminado cuando los observables conservan sus tipos esperados con la configuración actual.
