🦭 Integrated the latest updates and fixes from Version 7

• ⚠️ Breaking change: pass input ref instead of partial (#12773)
• ⚠️ Breaking change: rename useFieldArray
  • id to key
  • keyName props removed for useFieldArray

const { fields, append } =useFieldArray()

// data will be part of the submission 
append({
  key: 'key',  // does not affect render key
  id: 'key',  // does not affect render key
})

field[0].key // will still be uniq id for re-render

• ⚠️ Breaking change: rename <Watch /> rename names to name
• ⚠️ Breaking change: watch call back api removed
• ⚠️ Breaking change: setValue no longer direct update useFieldArray, instead use replace api
