Breaking Changes

- In edge cases error codes and messages changed to more informative. So if your app relies on any specific error codes and/or messages - these cases should be double checked after updating to this version.

- Documentation
Breaking changes
- Major under-the-hood improvement (the "Sessionless" protocol). This improvement is designed primarily for improved reliability. While this is not a breaking code change, it does carry a meaningful impact on timing:
- SDK commands will return success or failure up to ~10% more quickly than before.
- Real-time updates of data are now likely to arrive after the command completes. For example, Conversation.updateAttributes()will resolve successfully whileConversation#attributesstill contains the old value. To see the new value, we recommend waiting for an#updatedevent.
 
- Some error messages have changed. For example, trying to leave a conversation you're not part of will return error 50432, Participant not foundinstead of50400, User not member of channel.
- Passing nulltoConversation.sendMessagewill result in the message body being an empty string.
- User.updateFriendlyNameno longer accepts- nullas the value.
- Conversation.updateFriendlyNameno longer accepts- nullas the value.

Changes:
