fix: replace StreamChatGenerics with module augmentation (#1458)

fix: `channel_role` has been removed from the type of the `members`
parameter of the `Channel.inviteMembers` method
fix: properties `created_by` and `created_by_id` have been added to
`ChannelData` and `ChannelQueryOptions` types

BREAKING CHANGE: dropped jsDelivr bundle (#1468)
BREAKING CHANGE: dropped `StreamChatGenerics`, use `Custom<Entity>Data` to extend your
types
BREAKING CHANGE: type `InviteOptions` has been renamed to `UpdateChannelOptions`
BREAKING CHANGE: type `UpdateChannelOptions` has been renamed to
`UpdateChannelTypeRequest`
BREAKING CHANGE: type `ThreadResponseCustomData` has been renamed to `CustomThreadData`
BREAKING CHANGE: type `MarkAllReadOptions` has been deleted in favour of type
`MarkChannelsReadOptions`
BREAKING CHANGE: type `QueryFilter` no longer supports `$ne` and `$nin` operators
BREAKING CHANGE: type `ChannelMembership` has been deleted in favour of type
`ChannelMemberResponse`
BREAKING CHANGE: function `formatMessage` (`utils.ts`) no longer returns `__html`
property in the formatted message output

-### JS deliver
+## ✨ Getting Started
 
-```html
-<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/stream-chat"></script>
-```
+```ts
+import { StreamChat } from 'stream-chat';
+// or if you are using CommonJS
+const { StreamChat } = require('stream-chat');
 
-## ✨ Getting started
+const client = new StreamChat('API_KEY', 'API_SECRET', {
+  disableCache: true, // recommended option for server-side use
+  // ...other options like `baseURL`...
+});
 
-The StreamChat client is setup to allow extension of the base types through use of generics when instantiated. The default instantiation has all generics set to `Record<string, unknown>`.
+// create a user
+await client.upsertUser({
+  id: 'vishal-1',
+  name: 'Vishal',
+});
 
-```typescript
-import { StreamChat } from 'stream-chat';
-// Or if you are on commonjs
-const StreamChat = require('stream-chat').StreamChat;
+// create a channel
+const channel = client.channel('messaging', 'test-channel', { created_by_id: 'vishal-1' });
+await channel.create();
 
-const client = StreamChat.getInstance('YOUR_API_KEY', 'API_KEY_SECRET');
+// send message
+const { message } = await channel.sendMessage({ text: 'This is a test message' });
 
-const channel = client.channel('messaging', 'TestChannel');
-await channel.create();
+// send reaction
+await channel.sendReaction(message.id, { type: 'love', user: { id: 'vishal-1' } });
 ```
 
-Or you can customize the generics:
-
-```typescript
-type ChatChannel = { image: string; category?: string };
-type ChatUser1 = { nickname: string; age: number; admin?: boolean };
-type ChatUser2 = { nickname: string; avatar?: string };
-type UserMessage = { country?: string };
-type AdminMessage = { priorityLevel: number };
-type ChatAttachment = { originalURL?: string };
-type CustomReaction = { size?: number };
-type ChatEvent = { quitChannel?: boolean };
-type CustomCommands = 'giphy';
-
-type StreamType = {
-  attachmentType: ChatAttachment;
-  channelType: ChatChannel;
-  commandType: CustomCommands;
-  eventType: ChatEvent;
-  messageType: UserMessage | AdminMessage;
-  reactionType: CustomReaction;
-  userType: ChatUser1 | ChatUser2;
-};
+The `StreamChat` client is set up to allow extension of the base types through use of module augmentation, custom types will carry through to all client returns and provide code-completion to queries (if supported). To extend Stream's entities with custom data you'll have to create a declaration file and make sure it's loaded by TypeScript, [see the list of extendable interfaces](https://github.com/GetStream/stream-chat-js/blob/master/src/custom_types.ts) and the example bellow using two of the most common ones:
 
-const client = StreamChat.getInstance<StreamType>('YOUR_API_KEY', 'API_KEY_SECRET');
+```ts
+// stream-custom-data.d.ts
 
-// Create channel
-const channel = client.channel('messaging', 'TestChannel');
-await channel.create();
+import 'stream-chat';
 
-// Create user
-await client.upsertUser({
-  id: 'vishal-1',
-  name: 'Vishal',
-});
+declare module 'stream-chat' {
+  interface CustomMessageData {
+    custom_property?: number;
+  }
+  interface CustomUserData {
+    profile_picture?: string;
+  }
+}
 
-// Send message
-const { message } = await channel.sendMessage({ text: `Test message` });
+// index.ts
 
-// Send reaction
-await channel.sendReaction(message.id, { type: 'love', user: { id: 'vishal-1' } });
+// property `profile_picture` is code-completed and expects type `string | undefined`
+await client.partialUpdateUser({ id: 'vishal-1', set: { profile_picture: 'https://random.picture/1.jpg' } });
+
+// property `custom_property` is code-completed and expects type `number | undefined`
+const { message } = await channel.sendMessage({ text: 'This is another test message', custom_property: 255 });
+
+message.custom_property; // in the response object as well
 ```
 
-Custom types provided when initializing the client will carry through to all client returns and provide intellisense to queries.
+> [!WARNING]  
+> Generics mechanism has been removed in version `9.0.0` in favour of the module augmentation, please see [the release guide](https://getstream.io/chat/docs/node/upgrade-stream-chat-to-v9) on how to migrate.
