The backend changed the /v2/config format: the manifest is now an opaque string the SDK stores and replays verbatim, and active_topics + prefetch_blobs moved to the response top level. RemoteConfiguration drops the nested Manifest type accordingly. No production caller yet, so no migration needed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Description
After discussions, we changed the manifest from having a parseable body to an opaque string the SDK will just store and pass back to the backend to get the latest version of the config needed.
Note
Medium Risk
This is a breaking wire-format change for remote config sync; callers that still read
manifest.topicsor nested manifest fields must migrate to the new fields.Overview
