Syntax:
```js
// server A
io.serverSideEmit("hello", "world");
// server B
io.on("hello", (arg) => {
console.log(arg); // prints "world"
});
```
With acknowledgements:
```js
// server A
io.serverSideEmit("hello", "world", (err, responses) => {
console.log(responses); // prints ["hi"]
});
// server B
io.on("hello", (arg, callback) => {
callback("hi");
});
```
This feature replaces the customHook/customRequest API from the Redis
adapter: https://github.com/socketio/socket.io-redis/issues/370
Syntax:
```ts
interface ClientToServerEvents {
"my-event": (a: number, b: string, c: number[]) => void;
}
interface ServerToClientEvents {
hello: (message: string) => void;
}
const io = new Server<ClientToServerEvents, ServerToClientEvents>(httpServer);
io.emit("hello", "world");
io.on("connection", (socket) => {
socket.on("my-event", (a, b, c) => {
// ...
});
socket.emit("hello", "again");
});
```
The events are not typed by default (inferred as any), so this change
is backward compatible.
Note: we could also have reused the method here ([1]) to add types to
the EventEmitter, instead of creating a StrictEventEmitter class.
