RTCDataChannel error event should be of type RTCErrorEvent

[nikwen]

Code that should compile but doesn't

const peerConnection = new RTCPeerConnection();

peerConnection.addEventListener("datachannel", (event) => {
  event.channel.addEventListener("error", (event) => {
    console.error(event.error);
  });
});

TypeScript complains: "TS2339: Property error does not exist on type Event"

Reason

The RTCDataChannel error event should be of type RTCErrorEvent. In the type declarations, it's of type Error.
