Adds support for the client:media hydrator
The new `client:media` hydrator allows you to define a component that should only be loaded when a media query matches. An example usage:
```jsx
---
import Sidebar from '../components/Sidebar.jsx';
---
<Sidebar client:media="(max-width: 700px)" />
```
This allows you to define components which, for example, only run on mobile devices. A common example is a slide-in sidebar that is needed to add navigation to a mobile app, but is never displayed in desktop view.
Since Astro components can have expressions, you can move common media queries to a module for sharing. For example here are defining:
**media.js**
```js
export const MOBILE = '(max-width: 700px)';
```
And then you can reference this in your page:
**index.astro**
```jsx
import Sidebar from '../components/Sidebar.jsx';
import { MOBILE } from '../media.js';
---
<Sidebar client:media={MOBILE} />
```
