Release notes:

• Adds handling for sync actions via ChatKitServer.sync_action

Normally, widget actions are blocked while a thread is streaming a response. This prevents race conditions, but it can be limiting when a widget action is only going to update itself or trigger side effects outside the thread. To get around this limitation, we're adding ChatKitServer.sync_action where you can run any side effects and update the widget's UI as needed. To route an action to this handler, add streaming: false to the action. If a widget action includes streaming: false it won't be blocked during streaming.
