* docs: various docs updates to include what is new
in BBB 3.0.0-beta.1
- api changes
- dropped functionality
* docs: info on infinite whiteboard and seen chat
Adding screenshots and descriptions about the infinite whiteboard and
seen private chat messages to the 3.0 what-is-new docs
* docs: Add description of 3.0 new audio features
- improved ux for transparent listen only
- push to talk
Additionally, the mobile app can use this feature to render the whiteboard inside an iframe with the same `userId`.
By setting the parameter `revokePreviousSession=true`, a new `sessionToken` will be generated, and the previous session will be revoked when the new device connects. This is useful for transferring a session to another device and automatically closing the previous session.
In BBB ≤ 2.7, a procedure monitored system audio device changes, updating
the device list and assigning a fallback device if the current one was removed.
This procedure was removed in 3.0 during the migration of the
input-stream-live-selector component to TypeScript (reasons unknown), causing
the device list to become outdated and leaving the user's client without audio
input if their current device is disconnected.
This commit restores the `devicechange` event handler in the input-stream-live-
selector, ensuring that the device list is updated properly and fallback devices
are assigned when necessary.

Adjust an inline comment in connection status' service about packet loss metric
usage.
Now it correctly states that the absolute counter SHOULD NOT be used for
alert triggers.
In 3.0, the packet loss metric used to trigger connection status alerts was
changed to the one generated by the `startMonitoringNetwork` method used by the
connection status modal. Since packet loss thresholds were not adjusted (0.5,
0.1, 0.2), a single lost packet causes the status alert to be permanently
stuck on "critical". This is explained by how different those metrics
are:
- **Before (2.7):** A 5-probe wide calculation of inbound packet loss
fraction based on `packetsLost` and `packetsReceived` metrics.
- **Now (3.0):** An absolute counter of inbound lost packets.
This commit restores the previous packet loss metric used to trigger
connection status alerts, reverting to the original collection method via
`/utils/stats.js`. This resolves the issue, but further work is needed in
subsequent PRs:
- Unify the collection done in `/utils/stats.js` with the
`startMonitoringNetwork` method.
- Incorporate the remote-inbound `fractionsLost` metric to account for packet
loss on both legs of the network (in/out).
- Update the packet loss metric displayed in the connection status modal to
show a more meaningful value (e.g., packet loss percentage over a specific
probe interval). An absolute counter of lost packets isn't useful for end
users.
- Update the alert log to use the fraction or percentage above
