Expected Behavior

Calling typedoc with stripInternal set in typedoc.json should build documentation.

Actual Behavior

Error: Tried to set an option (stripInternal) that was not declared. and building fails

Steps to reproduce the bug

You can see it in my open-source repo. Here's the config file:
https://github.com/dbartholomae/jsx-readme/blob/main/typedoc.json

This broke somewhere between 0.19.2 and 0.20.14.
With 0.19.2 the code worked:
https://github.com/dbartholomae/jsx-readme/runs/1713979422?check_suite_focus=true#step:11:6

But after updating to 0.20.14, it fails:
https://github.com/dbartholomae/jsx-readme/pull/62/checks?check_run_id=1713999146#step:11:6

Environment

• Typedoc version: 0.20.14
• TypeScript version: 4.0.2
• Node.js version: 12.20.1
• OS: Ubuntu 18.04.5

stripInternal is a TypeScript option (https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#stripInternal). In 0.20, TypeDoc dropped support for setting TypeScript options via TypeDoc config files.

However, given that it is marked as an internal option, it seems reasonable to me to add it as a TypeDoc option, and treat that option as on if either the compiler option or the TypeDoc option is on.

Nice, I did not know that this is a TypeScript option. Will read up on it, from my side the issue could be closed then, but of course feel free to use it to track the idea to pass it through.

0.20.15 includes excludeInternal (renamed to match the other exclude TypeDoc options). It will be set to true automatically if you set the TypeScript stripInternal option, or can be set explicitly.
