New Features ✨

1. #144 - Change the Sound class from sealed to unsealed.

   Note This gives users the ability to inherit from the sound class to make it easier to adapt for their own systems.

---

Breaking Changes 🧨

1. #120 - Introduced the following breaking changes:
   • Changed the return type of the AudioDevices property in the AudioDevice class from string[] to ImmutableArray<string>.
   • Removed access to the OggAudioDataStream class by internalizing the type.

     Note This class was not meant to be exposed as part of the public API.

   • Refactored the following exceptions from being unsealed to sealed.
     • AudioException
     • SoundDataException
     • AudioDeviceDoestNotExistException
     • AudioDeviceManagerNotInitializedException
   • InitializeDeviceException
     • LoadLibraryException
     • StringNullOrEmptyException
     • UnknownPlatformException
2. #120 - Made the following improvements:
   • Made all of the custom exceptions in the code base serializable.

     Note This is best practice as it makes it much easier for multiple systems to consume and utilize the exceptions.

   • Changed how interoperability works with the native OpenAL libraries.

     Note Interop was changed from the classic [DllImport] system to the new [LibraryImport] system introduced
     in dotnet v7.0. This comes with performance benefits as well as allowing to be AOT compiled for systems that do not allow dynamic code generation. Go here for more information.
