  - Added x86_64 libraries.
* Added out of the box `FreeBSD` support.
* Significantly improved TDLib compilation time and decreased compiler RAM usage:
  - In native C++ interface `td_api::object_ptr` is now a simple homebrew const-propagating class instead of
    `std::unique_ptr`.
  - Added the script `SplitSource.php`, which can be used to split some source code files before building
    the library to reduce maximum RAM usage per file at the expense of increased build time.
* The update `updateOption` with the `version` option is now guaranteed to come before all other updates.
  It can now be used to dynamically discover available methods.
* Added the ability to delete incoming messages in private chats and revoke messages without a time limit:
  - Added the parameter `revoke` to the method `deleteChatHistory`; use it to delete chat history for all chat members.
  - Added the fields `can_be_deleted_only_for_self` and `can_be_deleted_for_all_users` to the class `chat`
    which can be used to determine for whom the chat can be deleted through the `deleteChatHistory` method.
  - The fields `Message.can_be_deleted_only_for_self` and `Message.can_be_deleted_for_all_users` can still be used
    to determine for whom the message can be deleted through the `deleteMessages` method.
* Added support for server-generated notifications about newly registered contacts:
  - Setting the option `disable_contact_registered_notifications` now affects all user sessions.
    When the option is enabled, the client will still receive `messageContactRegistered` message in the private chat,
    but there will be no notification about the message.
  - `getOption("disable_contact_registered_notifications")` can be used to fetch the actual value of the option,
    the option will not be updated automatically after a change from another device.
* Decreased the maximum allowed first name and last name length to 64, chat title length to 128,
  matching the new server-side limits.
* Decreased the maximum allowed value of the `forward_limit` parameter of the `addChatMember` method from 300 to 100,
  matching the new server-side limit.
* Added protection from opening two TDLib instances with the same database directory from one process.
* Added copying of notification settings of new secret chats from notification settings of
  the corresponding private chat.
* Excluded the sponsored chat (when using sponsored proxies) from unread counters.
* Allowed to pass decreased local_size in `setFileGenerationProgress` to restart the generation from the beginning.
* Added a check for modification time of original file in `inputFileGenerated` whenever possible.
  If the original file was changed, then TDLib will restart the generation.
* Added the destruction of MTProto keys on the server during log out.
* Added support for hexadecimal-encoded and decimal-encoded IPv4 proxy server addresses.
* Improved the behavior of `changeImportedContacts` which now also deletes contacts of users without Telegram accounts
  from the server.
* Added the ability to call `getStorageStatistics` before authorization.
* Allowed to pass `limit` = -`offset` for negative offset in the `getChatHistory` method.
* Changed the recommended `inputThumbnail` size to be at most 320x320 instead of the previous 90x90.
* Disabled building by default of the native C interface. Use `cmake --build . --target tdc` to build it.
* Numerous optimizations and bug fixes:
  - Network implementation for Windows was completely rewritten to allow a literally unlimited number of
    simultaneously used TDLib instances.
  - TDLib instances can now share working threads with each other. Only a limited number of threads will be created
    even if there are thousands of TDLib instances in a single process.
  - Removed the restriction on the size of update or response result in JSON interface.
  - Fixed pinning of the 5th chat when there is a sponsored chat.
  - Fixed IPv6 on Windows.
  - Improved network connections balancing, aliveness checks and overall stability.
  - Various autogenerated documentation fixes and improvements.

    default notification settings for private and secret chats and `notificationSettingsScopeGroupChats` for all other
    chats.

  activity; or `setOption("use_pfs")` can be used to guarantee that PFS is used for all requests.
