GENERAL NOTICE: changes to ObservableMedia

[CaerusKaru]

Due to the impending changes to RxJS in v7, there will be some changes made to ObservableMedia. This is because in the next version, RxJS no longer allows extending of Observable (since it's being changed to a function instead of a class).

One option we will explore is simply migrating to the CDK's BreakpointObserver. Another will be wrapping the observable in another class (possibly still called ObservableMedia just with a different way of accessing the Observable).

This notice is as much open for discussion as it is for getting the news out there. RxJS v7 is still a ways away, but the earlier we plan and explore options, the better the user experience for everyone.

I really like the CDK BreakpointObserver.. except that id does not contain "Window" Breakpoint Range from https://material.io/design/layout/responsive-layout-grid.html#breakpoints

It that could be added it would be super awesome! :)

@CaerusKaru I can't find any info on RxJS v7. Can you link us to the change you're talking about?
