setPersistence in AngularFire _BrowserLocalPersistence cannot be invoked without 'new'`

[omtagline]

Problem
The setPersistence method does not work when imported from @angular/fire/auth, leading to a TypeError. However, it works when imported from firebase/auth.

Error
When using the import from @angular/fire/auth, the following error is encountered:

ERROR TypeError: Class constructor _BrowserLocalPersistence cannot be invoked without 'new'
Code Example

• Non-functional:
  import { setPersistence, browserLocalPersistence } from '@angular/fire/auth';
await setPersistence(this.auth, browserLocalPersistence);

• Functional:
  import { setPersistence, browserLocalPersistence } from 'firebase/auth';
await setPersistence(this.auth, browserLocalPersistence);
