Event Handling Broken in v4.x (nms.on() Undefined)

[Felix-Skytro]

In Node-Media-Server v4.0.7, event handling seems to be broken. In previous versions (e.g., v2.7.4), I was able to use:

nms.on("prePublish", (id, streamPath, args) => {
  console.log(`Stream started: ${streamPath}`);
});

In v4.0.7, nms.on() seems to not exist.
This results in: TypeError: NMS.on is not a function

However, when I downgraded to v2.7.4, everything worked correctly.

To reproduce:

1. Install v4.0.7:
   npm install [email protected]

2. Try registering an event:

    const NodeMediaServer = require('node-media-server');
    const nms = new NodeMediaServer({});
    nms.run();
    nms.on("prePublish", (id, streamPath, args) => {
      console.log(`Stream started: ${streamPath}`);
    });

3. Error occurs:
   TypeError: nms.on is not a function

Expected Behavior
nms.on() should exist and work as expected.

Actual Behavior
nms.on() seems to not exist in v4.
Downgrading to [email protected] restores normal behavior.

Environment
Node.js Version: v20.17.0
node-media-server Version: 4.0.7
OS: Windows 10 Pro 22H2 (Build: 19045.5371)

#658 - Please check out this issue.
It seems they have decided to develop a new version in the master branch.
v4 is still in the early development phase and doesn't seem likely to stabilize anytime soon.
The last commit was made almost two months ago.
