New Features

• Add an optional implementation of streams using generics (Experimental) (#7057)
  • The new use_generic_stream_experimental=true option will cause the gRPC codegen to use prebuilt generic types to implement client and server stream objects, rather than generating new types and implementations for every RPC method. We intend to transition this to the default behavior in the next release. Please test it and provide any feedback.
