This is the first of a series of PRs, that let you pass functions, by
reference, to the client and back. E.g. through Server Context. It's
like client references but they're opaque on the client and resolved on
the server.
To do this, for security, you must opt-in to exposing these functions to
the client using the `"use server"` directive. The `"use client"`
directive lets you enter the client from the server. The `"use server"`
directive lets you enter the server from the client.
This works by tagging those functions as Server References. We could
potentially expand this to other non-serializable or stateful objects
too like classes.
This only implements server->server CJS imports and server->server ESM
imports. We really should add a loader to the webpack plug-in for
client->server imports too. I'll leave closures as an exercise for
integrators.
You can't "call" a client reference on the server, however, you can
"call" a server reference on the client. This invokes a callback on the
Flight client options called `callServer`. This lets a router implement
calling back to the server. Effectively creating an RPC. This is using
JSON for serializing those arguments but more utils coming from
client->server serialization.
This updates the Flight fixture to support the new ESM loaders in newer
versions of Node.js.
It also uses native fetch since react-fetch is gone now. (This part
requires Node 18 to run the fixture.)
I also updated everything to use the `"use client"` convention instead
of file name based convention.
The biggest hack here is that the Webpack plugin now just writes every
`.js` file in the manifest. This needs to be more scoped. In practice,
this new convention effectively requires you to traverse the server
graph first to find the actual used files. This is enough to at least
run our own fixture though.
I didn't update the "blocks" fixture.
