Addon/App releases

• It's finally released! https://github.com/CrowdStrike/ember-browser-services
  This addon is written in TypeScript, using composite tsconfigs and is meant to be a super lightweight abstraction during production, but allow for fine-grained test control during testing 😄
  (without tools like sinon). It can also prevent your app from accidentally navigating away to a different page during tests if you ever use window.location. from: https://discord.com/channels/480462759797063690/480499624663056390/809943974265618453 (🔒 @chrisrng )
