Creates a new Steam lobby using the configured type, slots, and usageHint.

Behavior:

• If partyWise is true and the player is in a Party lobby, they leave the existing lobby first.

• Uses the LobbyData.Create a method and pass a callback to handle success or failure.

• On success: updates m_Inspector.Data with the new LobbyData invokes OnCreated.

• On failure: invokes OnCreateFailed with the EResult from the attempt.
