New Release with compatibility Chart.js v3

[DmytroLitvinov]

After merging #26 it would be nice to see it as npm package's release :)

[nagix]

I will update the build system, workflows and documentation, add TypeScript support, improve ES module support, then release v1 😉

When we will can get the new release for chartjs v3?

What is the latest Chart.js compatible version?
I'm building a Flask application and my charts go all grey when I use any version of Chart.js after 2.9.4.
Thanks 😀

I was playing a bit with colorscheme v0.4.0 + Chart.js, and until v2.9.4 the plugin seems to work, but for newer versions (+3.0.2), colorscheme is broken with the following error:

 Uncaught TypeError: f.defaults.global is undefined
    <anonymous> https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chartjs-plugin-colorschemes@0.4.0:7
    <anonymous> https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chartjs-plugin-colorschemes@0.4.0:7

@nagix Any idea of a release date for v1?

Hello!
Master branch does not work with Chart.js 3.5.1
I've correct plugin.colorschemes.js, line 184
Replace
Chart.plugins.register(ColorSchemesPlugin);
to
(Chart.plugins || Chart).register(ColorSchemesPlugin);
After this replacement chartjs-plugin-colorschemes works well with Chart.js 3.5.1

Hi.
I think it's not enough:

Uncaught TypeError: Chart.defaults.global is undefined

I encountered the same same issues. I was able to get it working with chart.js 3.5.1 by applying the above patch, but also:
Line 1040 change:
Chart.defaults.global.plugins.colorschemes to Chart.defaults.plugins.colorschemes

Line 1075 - beforeUpdate: added following new line to get plugin options from chart object (as they were not present in argument options):
var options = chart.config.options.plugins.colorschemes;

Also replace Chart.plugins.register(ColorSchemesPlugin); with Chart.register(ColorSchemesPlugin); on line 1189

@nagix With #26, it's technically not a breaking change as far as I know. Would you consider releasing a 0.5.0 for Chart.js 3 compatibility? I know it would be nice to bundle this update into the v1.0 release, but perhaps it's just time to get Chart.js 3 support out there.
