Major overhaul for SignalR response pipeline:
- All deserialization now uses byte[] (offset/length) for zero-copy, allocation-free operation; all span/memory overloads removed.
- SignalR protocol sends (signalParams, object) directly; SignalData envelope and related logic removed.
- Server sets SignalParams.SignalDataType so protocol deserializes to the correct runtime type on the client.
- SignalResponseDataMessage now only used for client request/response tracking and stream path; RawResponseData holds the actual object.
- All extension methods, helpers, and infrastructure updated to use new byte[]-based APIs.
- AcSignalRDataSource and all test/benchmark code updated for new object flow.
- Removes all diagnostics, logging, and error handling related to binary envelopes.
- Enables true zero-copy, type-safe, allocation-free SignalR response handling.
Major overhaul of serialization/deserialization infrastructure:
- Introduced unified Chain API for binary/JSON, enabling multi-deserialization/population with strong IId reference identity (critical for Blazor/DXGrid).
- Added base classes for property accessors/setters and centralized type metadata.
- Implemented ChainReferenceTracker and shared IIdCollectionMergeHelper for reference tracking and collection merging.
- Refactored property access logic to use typed delegates for primitives/enums.
- Updated extension methods and replaced legacy chain/populate interfaces.
- Improved error handling and diagnostics.
- Added comprehensive tests for chain API and reference preservation.
- Minor fixes and performance optimizations throughout.
