The shell needs to support sending collation and writeconcern to the to the createCollection method, however it seems those options do not exist on the Options object that createCollection takes as an argument: https://github.com/mongodb/node-mongodb-native/blob/4f9d4ceafdcca01d49e6eeb286a9c27ddf485969/src/db.ts#L240

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding how commands are constructed because the 3.6 docs seem to indicate that both methods are supported. Is there a TS type for the complete options object passed to createCollection?
