Major Changes

• #15006 f361730 Thanks @florian-lefebvre! - Removes session test driver - (v6 upgrade guidance)

• #15006 f361730 Thanks @florian-lefebvre! - Deprecates session driver string signature - (v6 upgrade guidance)

Minor Changes

• #15006 f361730 Thanks @florian-lefebvre! - Adds new session driver object shape

  For greater flexibility and improved consistency with other Astro code, session drivers are now specified as an object:

  -import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config'
  +import { defineConfig, sessionDrivers } from 'astro/config'
  
  export default defineConfig({
    session: {
  -    driver: 'redis',
  -    options: {
  -      url: process.env.REDIS_URL
  -    },
  +    driver: sessionDrivers.redis({
  +      url: process.env.REDIS_URL
  +    }),
    }
  })
  

  Specifying the session driver as a string has been deprecated, but will continue to work until this feature is removed completely in a future major version. The object shape is the current recommended and documented way to configure a session driver.
