What's Changed

BREAKING:
New mandatory setup sequence for AVS registration. AVSs MUST set metadata in the allocation manager before:

• Creating operator sets (createOperatorSets)
• Registering operators (registerOperator)

Failing to set metadata will cause these operations to revert

BREAKING:
AVS-Registrar Integration

• A new required callback implementation via supportsAVS(address)
• A new parameter added to the operator set-based register/deregister interfaces

AVSs must implement the new callback mechanism to establish the AVS-AVSRegistrar relationship and must update their operator set registration/deregistration functions to handle this added parameter

IMPROVEMENTS:
Ejection State Handling

• Improved the deregistration interactions with the core protocol to be simpler and better handle ejection cases
• Improved Socket Registry functionality and reliability
