Typescript: Make MithrilVirtualElement non-generic

`MithrilVirtualElement` was recently converted to be generic over `<T extends
MithrilController>`. The element's `children` may then contain other
`MithrilVirtualElement<T>` or `MithrilComponent<T>` elements.

Unfortunately, in common usage of 'm()' this can cause problems with Mithril's type
inference system. If a type is not explicitly provided to `m()`, the "T" of the
returned MithrilVirtualElement<T> will be inferred from its children. The
candidates for T will be the concrete types of the child MithrilComponent<T>; however, if no
candidate type is a subset of *every* candidate type, then TypeScript will be
unable to infer a valid type, and the call to `m()` will not compile.

To improve this behavior, this commit makes MithrilVirtualElement non-generic;
it's child collection can now contain MithrilComponent<MithrilController>, which
matches all valid MithrilComponent. This the same underlying issue as the
previous commit, which made MithrilRoutes non-generic.

The motivation for fixing this is threefold:

1. Because `m()` has so many overloads, in the case where a call to `m()` will
not compile due to the above issue, the syntax error provided by TypeScript is
not helpful.
2. In many cases, users will be calling `m<MithrilController>()` in their code
simply to get it to compile, which provides no additional utility over a
non-generic type and adds significant boilerplate.
3. Explicitly specifying subtypes to `m()` calls provides little utility; at
best, it can check that contained components implement some common interface.
However, type assertions like that can be provided in other places without
having to attach the information to the MithrilVirtualElement.
