Originally the idea was to hide all suspending behind getters or proxies.
However, this has some issues with perf on hot code like React elements.
It also makes it too easy to accidentally access it the first time in an
effect or callback where things aren't allowed to suspend. Making it
an explicit method call avoids this issue.
All other suspending has moved to explicit lazy blocks (and soon elements).
The only thing remaining is the root. We could require the root to be an
element or block but that creates an unfortunate indirection unnecessarily.
Instead, I expose a readRoot method on the response. Typically we try to
avoid virtual dispatch but in this case, it's meant that you build
abstractions on top of a Flight response so passing it a round is useful.
* Resolve Server-side Blocks instead of Components
React elements should no longer be used to extract arbitrary data but only
for prerendering trees.
Blocks are used to create asynchronous behavior.
* Resolve Blocks in the Client
* Tests
* Bug fix relay JSON traversal
It's supposed to pass the original object and not the new one.
* Lint
* Move Noop Module Test Helpers to top level entry points
This module has shared state. It needs to be external from builds.
This lets us test the built versions of the Noop renderer.

I also introduced the concept of a module reference on the client too.
We don't need this for webpack so that gets compiled out but we need it
for www. Similarly I also need a difference between preload and load.
This replaces the HTML renderer with instead resolving host elements into
arrays tagged with the react.element symbol. These turn into proper
React Elements on the client.
The symbol is encoded as the magical value "$". This has security implications
so this special value needs to remain escaped for other strings.
We could just encode the element as {$$typeof: "$", key: key props: props}
but that's a lot more bytes. So instead I encode it as:
["$", key, props] and then convert it back.
It would be nicer if React's reconciler could just accept these tuples.
* Add ReactFlightServerConfig intermediate
This just forwards to the stream version of Flight which is itself forked
between Node and W3C streams.
The dom-relay goes directly to the Relay config though which allows it to
avoid the stream part of Flight.
* Separate streaming protocol into the Stream config
* Split streaming parts into the ReactFlightServerConfigStream
This decouples it so that the Relay implementation doesn't have to encode
the JSON to strings. Instead it can be fed the values as JSON objects and
do its own encoding.
* Split FlightClient into a basic part and a stream part
Same split as the server.
* Expose lower level async hooks to Relay
This requires an external helper file that we'll wire up internally.
* Rename to clarify that it's client-only
* Rename FizzStreamer to FizzServer for consistency
* Rename react-flight to react-client/flight
For consistency with react-server. Currently this just includes flight
but it could be expanded to include the whole reconciler.
* Add Relay Flight Build
* Rename ReactServerHostConfig to ReactServerStreamConfig
This will be the config specifically for streaming purposes.
There will be other configs for other purposes.
