What's new
Map / explorer view
You can now explore the map by the click of a button. The new explorer view will zoom out and show you the whole map.
From there, you can zoom in and out as you want and move the camera freely. There is also a search bar to quickly find
any area or any item of the map.
The map editor was also extended to allow you to define descriptions for areas and items. These descriptions will be
displayed when you click on an area or an item in the explorer view.

Room list
A much requested feature!
You can now see the list of all rooms connected to your current world.
The notion of "world" is defined from the Admin API. If you do not use an Admin API, the "world" is the list of all maps stored
in your map-storage container.
Click the "Open room list" button in the action bar to teleport to any map of your world.

video of the screen share is now slightly bigger, making it easier to read text on the screen share.
In the future, we will completely rework the video overlay (and the design of WorkAdventure) to allow for a complete
full-screen experience.

Megaphone UX improvements
There are many ways to send a message to all users in a map. One of them is the "megaphone" feature. It enables
you to speak to everyone on the map directly. The other is to send a "global message": a text message that will be displayed
to everyone on the map. The third one is play an MP3 file to announce something to everyone. Those three features
fill the same purpose but were scattered in the UI. We have now grouped them in a single "megaphone" button.

Scripting API state typing
When using variables (whether they are global variables or variables attached to a player) in the Scripting API, the type
returned by the variable was not known. By seurity, the Scripting API would type any variable as unknown. This leads
to many type checking errors forcing the user in the best case to use type guards, or in the worst case, to case the
variable.
Starting with 1.19, the Scripting API now provides interfaces for the room variables and the player variables.
Those interfaces are by default empty. But thanks to interface merging, you can extend those entities in your scripts.
By doing so, you can benefit from IDE autocompletion and type checking in the scripting API without having to resort
to casting the results.
A word of caution: Typescript types are removed at compile time. This means that in order to be truly sure of the type
of a variable, you still need to do runtime checks (using type guards or specialized libraries like Zod).
Miscellaneous / code improvements
