* It fixes a crash of the old Box2D library when a lot of objects with the Physics2 behavior were created.
* The same version of Box2d (2.3.1) is still used so there should not be any behavior change.
- Updated PeerJS.
- Fixes for Safari.
- Improved typings.
- New default TURN server.
- Add a JavaScript API to get access to the raw connection.
This allows to send custom messages from JavaScript. This allows to use a binary protocol from JavaScript.
- Use Map instead of JavaScript objects in places where it makes sense (more performant and less error prone).
- Avoid making a redundant get for every connection on the map containing the connections.

* Fix an uncatched exceptions when a tile map resource is not set.
* Show place-holders for tile map with invalid resources in the instances editor.
* Give a better default name to tile map collision mask objects.
* Add a border around the tile map collision mask objects in the instance editor.
* It makes the same boxes as the tilemaps collision mask object to ease positioning.
* If the extra margin is not intended the right size can be set with Tiled.
* The collision mask is read from the tile maps exported by Tiled 1.9+.
* Several collision masks can be used for instance to have platforms and ladders.
* Take a look to the wiki for more details https://wiki.gdevelop.io/gdevelop5/objects/tilemap
* Make it possible to activate and reactivate physics 2 behaviour
* Fix behaviour for objects modified or destroyed during events life cycle
* Make Physics2 Collision condition valid in any step of behaviour life cycles
* Anchor an edge of an object to set its distance from the window edges. Single anchor will not stretch the object anymore; you will need to set anchors to object's opposite edges for this effect.
* Add a button to switch between legacy and new behavior.
* This brings improved performance and compatibility for the desktop app with Windows, macOS and Linux.
* In particular, tilemap performance should be greatly improved both in the scene editor, the preview and exported games on Linux.
* This should also improve performance of both the editor and games on macOS when running on Apple Silicon (M1 cpus).
* Thanks to @nilaymajorwar for the ground work on this upgrade.
Only show the rest in developer changelog:
* More work is needed to isolate the Electron "renderer" process from the "main" process (both for the editor and for games), by using `contextBridge` and preload scripts (https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/tutorial/process-model). Your help is welcome to progressively do this migration.
