Issue using `replaceData()` with `dataTableProxy()` about dt HOT 4 CLOSED

@yihui it resolves the issue in the reprex! It didn't resolve the new issue in our test apps, but I realized the test app used replaceData(dataTableProxy("table"), x()) (replacing the table with a value, not a data frame), so maybe that was unintentionally supported until recently. Anyway, I've updated our test app with both fixes and I think we can consider this resolved. Thanks all!

It works if we set rownames=FALSE:

replaceData(dataTableProxy("table"), df(), rownames = FALSE)

from dt.

Right, if the original table was rendered with rownames = FALSE, the new data should also use rownames = FALSE when replacing the old data.

I've tested CRAN releases 0.30 and 0.29. The problem doesn't seem to be new, i.e., both CRAN versions can reproduce the problem. I don't know why it didn't happen before...

@gadenbuie Could you check if rownames = FALSE works? Thanks!
