3.0.0 - Improved Security For Static Files

This release adds additional restrictions around static files that the library will serve. There is a new required positional argument root_path when initializing the server. The server will not serve static files outside of that directory by default. So for instance if you set root_path to "/static" as the examples do then the server will not serve files located in the root directory.

Existing projects using this library will need to update the initialization within their code to include the new argument in order to run with the new version of this library.
