Due to the rewrite of the plugin's core sync loop and the change for the
Notify backend on MacOS, along with all the other changes in 7.4.0, it
makes sense for us to use a release candidate before actually cutting a
proper `7.4.0` release.
This modifies Rojo's build script to throw a fit if we're building a
plugin with a semver incompatible version. In the process, it moves the
version of the plugin to a file named `Version.txt` that's parsed at
runtime. This should be minimally invasive but it's technically worse
for performance than the hardcoded table and string we had before.
This feels better than a CI check or just manually verifying because it
makes it physically impossible for us to forget since Rojo won't build
with it being wrong.
This PR aims to clean up the changelog in preparation for 7.4.0. We
should focus on making changes clear to users with examples, removing
any entries that they won't care about, and consolidating tightly
related changes

Resolves#667
This PR:
- Introduces a new field in the project file: `scriptType` which has the
default value of `Class` (in parity with previous versions), but can
also be `RunContext`.
- This is then passed to `InstanceContext` from the `Project` struct.
- This then changes the RunContext in the lua `snapshot_middleware`

Because Roact will destroy and recreate a plugin widget if it unmounts
and remounts, Studio will complain about making a new widget with the
same ID as the old one.
The simplest solution is to just use GUIDs so we never have to worry
about this again. The ID is used internally for storing the widget's
dock state and other internal details, so we don't want *all* our
widgets to use GUIDs, only the ephemeral popup ones.
Services, `StarterPlayerScripts`, and `StarterCharacterScripts` are
currently special-cased to allow them to be specified in project files
without a classname. This does the same to `Terrain` since it's a
singleton in the same style as those.
The last release of rbx_dom had support for `Terrain.MaterialColors`.
This allows it to be specified directly instead of only via the
fully-qualified syntax.
When building the tree, I've implemented a few improvements:
- We no longer traverse the full ancestry for every leaf node- we exit
early when we find a node that already exists
- We no longer search the entire tree to see if a node id exists before
creating one with that id, we just check if is in the map
