Bitesize Samples Changelog

This is a minor housekeeping patch to fix broken Readme links. Please check out the 1.2.0 release for more information on the new Dynamic Addressables Network Prefabs sample! Below is a preview of the 1.2.0 release notes:

Dynamic Addressables Network Prefabs

The Dynamic Addressables Network Prefabs sample has been added! This sample showcases the available use-cases for the dynamic prefab system, which allows us to add new spawnable prefabs at runtime. Each scene in the project showcases a different, isolated feature of the API, allowing for easy extraction into other projects. This sample also uses in-game UI (created using UI Toolkit) to interface with the dynamic prefabs system with configurable options like artificial latency and network spawn timeout for easy testing.
