Bundled messages are ignored by dispatcher #190

Description

@megalon

I am writing a listen server for the VMC Protocol, which is an OSC protocol that includes bundled messages.
https://protocol.vmc.info/english.html

I wrote a barebones server

from pythonosc.dispatcher import Dispatcher
from pythonosc import osc_server

if __name__ == "__main__":
  dispatcher = Dispatcher()
  dispatcher.set_default_handler(print)

  server = osc_server.ThreadingOSCUDPServer(("0.0.0.0", 39539), dispatcher)
  print(f"Serving on {server.server_address}")
  server.serve_forever()

However, the output is the same unbundled message repeating, with the bundled messages not getting printed.

...
/VMC/Ext/Blend/Apply
/VMC/Ext/Blend/Apply
/VMC/Ext/Blend/Apply
...

If I use this other script to simply listen directly to the socket, then I can see all of the bundled messages

import socket
from pythonosc.osc_bundle import OscBundle
from pythonosc.osc_message import OscMessage

UDP_IP, UDP_PORT = "0.0.0.0", 39539

sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
sock.bind((UDP_IP, UDP_PORT))
print(f"Listening on {UDP_IP}:{UDP_PORT}")

while True:
    data, _ = sock.recvfrom(65535)
    print(data)
    print()

Output:

...
b'/VMC/Ext/Blend/Apply\x00\x00\x00\x00,\x00\x00\x00'

I feel like I am doing something wrong here, and I shouldn't have to bypass the Dispatcher to get bundled messages.
How can I do this without using Socket? Am I doing someething wrong here, or does dispatcher just ignore bundled messages?
