Other features:
- Thanks to the many translation contributors @ https://weblate.madelineproto.xyz/, MadelineProto is now localized in Hebrew, Persian, Kurdish, Uzbek, Russian, French and Italian!
- Added simplified `sendMessage`, `sendDocument`, `sendPhoto` methods that return abstract [Message](https://docs.madelineproto.xyz/PHP/danog/MadelineProto/EventHandler/Message.html) objects with simplified properties and bound methods!
- You can now use `Tools::callFork` to fork a new green thread!
- You can now automatically pin messages broadcasted using `broadcastMessages`, `broadcastForwardMessages` by using the new `pin: true` parameter!
- You can now use `sendMessageToAdmins` to send messages to the bot's admin (the peers returned by `getReportPeers`).
- Added `wrapUpdate`, `wrapMessage`, `wrapMedia` methods to wrap low-level MTProto updates into an abstracted Message object with bound methods!
- The `waveform` attribute of `Voice` objects is now automatically encoded and decoded to an array of 100 integer values!

- Added `isForum` method to check whether a given supergroup is a forum

- You can now use `reportMemoryProfile()` to generate and send a `pprof` memory profile to all report peers to debug the causes of high memory usage.
- Added support for `pay`, `login_url`, `web_app` and `tg://user?id=` buttons in bot API syntax!

- Broadcast IDs are now unique across multiple broadcasts, even if previous broadcasts already completed their ID will never be re-used.
- Now uploadMedia, sendMedia and upload can upload files from string buffers created using `ReadableBuffer`.
- Reduced memory usage during flood waits by tweaking config defaults.
