feat: Remove deprecation DEPPS2: Config option directAccess defaults to true (parse-community#8284)

BREAKING CHANGE: Config option `directAccess` defaults to true; set this to `false` in environments where multiple Parse Server instances run behind a load balancer and Parse requests within the current Node.js environment should be routed via the load balancer and distributed as HTTP requests among all instances via the `serverURL`.
