The return type was added because it was added in symfony/browser-kit v8 as well.

This change could be considered a BC break.
The class is not final and thus users might get a type error if they extended this class and used a different return type.

@TavoNiievez @SamMousa What's your opinion here? Should this change be considered a BC break and thus result in a new major release?

I just noticed that #37 added some return type hints to some methods as well without tagging a new major version. The changes were part of the bugfix release 3.0.2.

Maybe it is okay to accept the BC break of my PR without tagging a new major version?

I'm not sure how major releases in repositories that have automated releases configured actually work.
I probably skipped checking whether this should be released as a minor or major change when I saw that the process was automated.
IMO, we should treat the release of this version as it was labeled as a mistake.
We should stick to semver as much as possible.
But I'll leave the final word to @SamMousa since he's a little more familiar with it.

According to the docs to add "BREAKING CHANGE:" to the footer of the commit message.

I'm looking forward to the opinion of @SamMousa as well 😃
