If a schema is passed, use that for the collection type

[KyleAMathews]

You now must either pass an explicit type or schema - passing both will conflict.

I also removed the broken preloadCollection so I didn't have to fix its types 😆 the plan is make collections lazy by default and expose a .start() method which returns a promise that resolves when the collection finishes loading.

Fix #116 #76

All looks great!

Aside, with the work on #185 the new useLiveQuery will probably want to optionally take a schema too so that a user can validate writes to a derived collection. I have the groundworks for this.

[samwillis]

I think the logic here is correct.

It may be good to add an else that throws with a "this should never happen" error. Currently, if the logic is wrong, the error is silently eaten but we want to know about it.

I quite like the pattern I have seen others using where they have a shouldNeverHappen() function that in dev mode triggers a breakpoint with debugger, and in prod throws an error.

[KyleAMathews]

Good idea — I'll add this

[samwillis]

Looks good!
