Bitcoin Connect v3.2.0-alpha Released

Bitcoin Connect is a simple library that enables users to connect their wallet to lightning-powered websites on any browser through WebLN, the open protocol for lightning on the Web.

No Bullshit Bitcoin is funded by our community.

This release fixes two issues and one request raised by @ekzyis from stacker news:
- closeModal no longer causes an issue with React strict mode;
- connecting/connected subscription methods now fire callbacks immediately if the state already matches when the subscription is created;
- new API function to get the current connector's config (e.g. to display the name of the connector currently connected to): getConnectorConfig().
It also introduces a new fiat balance switcher thanks to @Alan-AC7.
Special thanks to @hzrd149 for a huge reduction in package size!
Also there are some improvements to xss attack prevention by @reneaaron.
There's also an experimental way to configure NWC permissions through the Bitcoin Connect init function.
Deprecation: isConnected function has been deprecated and will be removed in v4.
