A living session could be a requirement for specific pages (like dashboards). If it doesn’t exist, the user should be redirected to a page asking them to sign in again.
Sometimes, a user might log out by accident, or by deleting cookies on purpose. If that happens (e.g. on a separate tab), then `useSession({ required: true })` should detect the absence of a session cookie and always return a non-nullable Session object type.
When `required: true` is set, the default behavior will be to redirect the user to the sign-in page. This can be overridden by an `action()` callback:
```js
const session = useSession({
required: true,
action() {
// ....
}
})
if (session.status === "Loading") return "Loading or not authenticated..."
// session.data is always defined here.
```

BREAKING CHANGE:
The `useSession` hook now returns an object. Here is how to accommodate for this change:
```diff
- const [ session, loading ] = useSession()
+ const { data: session, status } = useSession()
+ const loading = status === "loading"
```
With the new `status` option, you can test states much more clearly.
