Changelog

• SchemaSerializer now uses @colyseus/schema 3.0 (https://github.com/colyseus/schema/pull/173 / https://github.com/colyseus/colyseus/issues/709)
• @colyseus/schema v3.0:
• Introduce a StateView build block that allows to filter data per client (See docs)
• Deprecate @filter() and @filterChildren()
• De-couple encode and decode methods from Schema instances
• De-couple client-side callbacks from Schema instances
  • Client SDKs: New API for attaching client-side schema callbacks (See docs)
  • Fix re-using schema instances on many places & missing callbacks (https://github.com/colyseus/schema/issues/151)
  • Fix triggering onAdd callbacks twice when nested (https://github.com/colyseus/schema/issues/147)
• Fix known issues from ArraySchema (https://github.com/colyseus/colyseus/issues/641)
• Avoid global type Context (https://github.com/colyseus/colyseus-unity-sdk/issues/131)
• Expose APIs to:
  • Allow to encode/decode arbitrary structures (no need to inherit from Schema class)
  • Allow to customize the change tracking, encoding and decoding at the byte level
  • (See Advanced Usage)
• onAuth now receives "context" as third argument instead of "req". (See docs)
• Experimental WebTransport implementation (See docs)
• Improve buffer / memory allocation for sending messages
• Allow to set state from class definition (state = new MyState())
• Deprecate sending schema-encoded messages
• Expose previously undocumented client._reconnectionToken as client.reconnectionToken
• matchMaker.getRoomById() no longer returns a Room instance. It now returns the cached data on the driver.
• matchMaker.getLocalRoomById() has been introduced to retrieve the Room instance instead.
• client.getAvailableRooms() have been removed
• Do not expose private Client properties to end-users (added a ClientPrivate interface for internal use)
