This minor update instructs users to install the firebase3 typings file into typings.json instead of into tsconfig.js. I believe that this method is better because some projects use the "excludes" property in tsconfig (I encountered this in an Ionic v2 setup), which is mutually exclusive to the "files" property.

The "files" property cannot be used in conjunction with the "exclude" property 1

If users do not know this, they can inadvertently begin including files that they had been meaning to exclude. Otherwise they might think they have to refactor their globbing pattern to use with "files" instead of "exclude", which isn't necessary if the typings are left out of tsconfig.

I shared this solution on issue #234 (comment) and it seems to have worked for other people as well.
