spfx 1.6.0 compatibility error (context field incompatible)

[deanbot]

Greetings,

It looks like it's time to update @microsoft packages for 1.6.0 ("@microsoft/sp-webpart-base": "1.6.0") compatibility... IWebPartContext has changed.

Using PropertyFieldPicturePicker when i specify context i.e.:

PropertyFieldPicturePicker('id', {
...props,
context: this.context
})

I get the following error when serving.:

error TS2345: Argument of type '{ label: string; initialValue: string; readOnly: true; previewImage: true; allowedFileExtensions:...' is not assignable to parameter of type
'IPropertyFieldPicturePickerProps'.
[15:38:10] [tsc] Types of property 'context' are incompatible.
[15:38:10] [tsc] Type 'WebPartContext' is not assignable to type 'IWebPartContext'.[15:38:10] [tsc] Types of property 'httpClient' are incompatible.

Same issue for the new released SPFx 1.7.0

I found what I needed on the dev branch https://sharepoint.github.io/sp-dev-fx-property-controls/
npm i @pnp/spfx-property-controls@next -S

@berndverhofstadt could you describe how you updated the package.json so it uses new references? I replaced package names and bumped versions but it was not good enough to make the linter happy.
