Net

• Allows a single thread host to maintain multiple logs for a given thread authored by different identities.
• Provides a mechanism to allow an App to validate a Record before it's committed to a log.
• Improved semaphore contention during log orchestration (#435)
• Makes libp2p pubsub of thread records optional (off by default) (#415)
• Exposes all gRPC dial-options (#427)

DB

• Adds a Verify method that function much like Save but does not commit the generated actions. This is useful in a transaction to know if a future action will be permitted.
• Collections can now take a JS function that validates collection writes. This opens the door to a lot of complex use cases, e.g., Buckets uses this feature to implement file-level access control.
• Collections can now take a JS function that filters collection reads. This opens the door to a lot of complex use cases, e.g., Buckets uses this feature to implement file-level access control.
• Transactions now returns errors without ending the transaction (#438)
• The internal transaction Discard method is now part of the gRPC API (#437)
• Adds more options to ds.Query:
  • Seek to an instance ID before running a query
  • Skip is an alternative way to paginate (not as efficient as Seek, but a better fit in cases where the IDs aren't dictating result order)
  • Limit the number of query results
• Adds a couple ds.Query helpers:
  • OrderByID: Specifies ascending ID order for the query results
  • OrderByIDDesc: Specifies descending ID order for the query results

Core

• Adds encoding.BinaryMarshaler and encoding.BinaryUnmarshaler to thread.Identity
• Adds Decrypt to thread.Identity
• Adds Encrypt to thread.PubKey

Misc.

• Updates README with more relevant info and a flushed out Getting Started section.
• Updates go-libp2p to v0.10.3
• Removes the replace directives in go.mod, which are cumbersome for downstream projects.
• Cleans up old / unused things:
  • Android client (not maintained)
  • threads shell (to be replaced with the NodeJS REPL)
  • examples (they are dated and will be superseded by the README examples)
