Prereqs

This PR is dependent on my other PR, #28. If the other PR is still open, please review that 1st.

About

Overview was added to the Unity tutorial section.
In the Unity pt1 tutorial, a C# variant was added to parity the Rust module in a tutorial split.
Unity tutorial was split into Basic Multiplayer and Advanced sections.

Why?

Despite being a Unity tutorial (where the user likely already knows C#), the tutorial exampled only a Rust module.
Having Rust as the only tutorial option created friction when the user is already learning multiple new things: The SpacetimeDB architecture, the CLI, the client SDK and server SDK. If they previously did not know Rust, this could add some weight to the onboarding friction.
The Unity tutorial could use an overview since it's lengthy and progressive.
Part1 should be split, anyway - it covers way too much for a single section to handle (especially since it jumps between client and server).
Splitting the sections between basic multiplayer + advanced makes things more-manageable and less intimidating.

Before

UNITY TUTORIAL
- Part1 (Client + Rust Server)
- Part2 (Resources and Scheduling)
- Part3 (BitCraft Mini)

After

UNITY TUTORIAL - BASIC MULTIPLAYER
- Overview
- Part1 (Setup)
- Part2a (Rust Server)
- Part2b (C# Server)
- Part3 (Client)
UNITY TUTORIAL - ADVANCED
- Part4 (Resources and Scheduling)
- Part5 (BitCraft Mini)

Note

I linked the entire file to a public gist post. This may look more professional if this was moved to a more "official" looking account for either now (this PR) or in the future.

refactor: Whats next cleanup, +unity, -bloat Removed redundant text while there refactor: Unity quickstart fixes, impr, prettify refactor: Unity pt1 fixes, impr, prettify fix(README): Rm "see test edits below" ref * !exists refactor(minor): General onboarding cleanup * Shorter, prettier, consistent fix(sdks/c#): Broken unitypackage url feat(sdks/c#): Add OneTimeQuery api ref

- PR review change requests - Additionally: hasUpdatedRecently fix and reformatting

- Used FindBy since that was what the tutorial used, and also looking for a single Identity. - Note: There may be a similar rust discrepancy in the Unity pt1 tutorial. It'll work with Filter, but just simply less consistent. Holding off on that since my Rust syntax knowledge !exists.

* Duplicate comments found both above and within funcs

* Removed `System.Runtime.CompilerServices` * SpacetimeDB.Module seems to already include this (merged the info)

* At general quickstart for `spacetime start`

* Also, removed the "speed" loss mention of C#

- After a verbose discussion, we will eventually swap to FindBy for single-result queries, but not in this PR. - For now, the syntax err is fixed by making the var nullable and suffixing a LINQ FirstOrDefault(). Approved by Tyler in Discord. - We never *actually* created a player in the tutorial. This creates the player. Approved by Tyler in Discord.

- Why? - Despite being a Unity tutorial (we 100% know the user knows C#), the server example used Rust. - This creates friction when the user is already learning multiple new things: The SpacetimeDB architecture, the CLI, the client SDK and server SDK.

⚠️All of the Unity section is deprecated in this PR and will be replaced by spacetime-docs::Dylan/refactor/unity tutorial revamp, thanks to a new Unity tutorial that was assigned later.

There are still outside edits here worth visiting:
