BREAKING CHANGES

• builder: changes main generic parameter to be a class instead of instance and makes defineAbility to accept options as the 2nd argument.

  Before

  import { AbilityBuilder, defineAbility, Ability } from '@casl/ability';
  
  const resolveAction = (action: string) => {/* custom implementation */ };
  const ability = defineAbility({ resolveAction }, (can) => can('read', 'Item'));
  const builder = new AbilityBuilder<Ability>(Ability);

  After

  import { AbilityBuilder, defineAbility, Ability } from '@casl/ability';
  
  const resolveAction = (action: string) => {/* custom implementation */ };
  const ability = defineAbility((can) => can('read', 'Item'), { resolveAction });
  const builder = new AbilityBuilder(Ability); // first argument is now mandatory!

  The 1st parameter to AbilityBuilder is now madatory. This allows to infer generic parameters from it and makes AbilityType that is built to be explicit.
