SignalR JavaScript client changing package name to @microsoft/signalr

In 3.0.0-preview7, the SignalR JavaScript client will change from being @aspnet/signalr to @microsoft/signalr. We are doing this to reflect the fact that SignalR is useful in more than just ASP.NET Core applications, thanks to the Azure SignalR Service.

To react to this change, you will need to change your references in package.json files, require statements, and ECMAScript import statements. No API will change as part of this rename.

Please use dotnet/aspnetcore#11637 for discussions on this change.
