- Improve the logic to detect the Node.js platform (#421). Thanks @tamuratak.
## 2023-12-20, version 9.0.3

BREAKING CHANGE: the library now comes with TypeScript type definitions
included. There may be minor differences between the new, embedded type
definitions and the implementation from `@types/workerpool` that was needed
before. For example, `type WorkerPool` is called `type Pool` now.
- Generate TypeScript types from JSDoc comments. Thanks @tamuratak.

- Fix: throw an error in case of unknown properties or inherited properties
in `workerOpts`, `workerThreadOpts` and `forkOpts` to protect against
security issues related to prototype pollution
(see ea5368c5e53d97120b952ffad151a318c1ff073c).
