Shrunk app UI to 90% and converted all px to rem (16px browser default) (#26826)
Potential breaking change: The app UI has been shrunk to 90% of its previous size. Extensions that rely on hardcoded px values or the old 14px root font-size may render incorrectly — all app sizing now uses rem based on the 16px browser default.

Relational versioned data now requires explicit field expansion to be included in the response.

Filter conditions now apply to the versioned data instead of the main record
For more information, please read the breaking change docs for a full list of changes.
Additionally there will be further breaking changes to USER_CREATED, USER_UPDATED, DATE_CREATED, DATE_UPDATED default values in a followup PR to improve this behavior further.

Added TypeScript support for services within the extension context (#25368)
The services exposed to API extensions using TypeScript are now fully typed instead of any, which may cause new type errors when building extensions.
Arguments of service methods are now strictly typed, which can result in type errors for broader types that would not error before:
The ItemsService constructor now expects the collection name to be a string and will error on string | undefined (or other unions).
Similarly, functions like service.readOne()/service.readMany() now expect string | number for their primary keys and will error for nullable types
As a workaround, casting the services back to any will result in the original behavior. However, it is recommended to resolve the type errors instead.

Added support for LDAP login and enhanced parameter consistency for refresh/logout commands. Allowed overriding the mode in refresh and logout commands to be inline with login (#25132)
The login method now accepts a payload object instead of separate email and password parameters.
This enables support for both standard and LDAP authentication, but requires updates to code that previously called sdk.login(email, password).
The new usage is sdk.login({ email, password }) or sdk.login({ identifier, password }) for LDAP.
The refresh and logout command method parameters have been updated to be consistent across usage. The functions now accept an options object instead of their previous regular parameters.
For example the new usage for refresh is sdk.request(refresh({ mode: "json", refresh_token })) instead of sdk.request(refresh('json', refresh_token)).
