v0.36.0

• Improved type hints to tell when a function may not return anything.
• Added support for the reportTag property to MessageBase. I noticed this was one of the properties for IPM.Outlook.Recall so I decided to implement it. I'll work on ensuring all of [MS-OXOMSG] and [MS-OXCMSG] are implemented at a later date, including splitting off REPORT into it's own class, because it is it's own class.
• Fixed a few minor issues in some properties. Mostly some bool returning properties should have been returning False when they were not found instead of None. Ones that may return None are specifically typed as optional in the source code. Unfortunately using the help command doesn't seem to show the return type for properties for me at least on Python 3.9 and below.
• Fixed Attachment.save returning a pathlib.Path object instead of a str after the conversion to pathlib.
• Added code to allow pathlib objects in utils.openMsgBulk. It uses glob.glob which cannot take a pathlib object.
• Removed PermanentEntryID from EntryID.autoCreate. It shares a provider ID with AddressBookEntryID, and as such would never generate from it anyways. If you specifically need a PermanentEntryID you will have to instantiate it manually. Additionally, the entry has been removed from enums.EntryIDType.
• Fixed the GUIDs for some of the EntryID structures being returned as bytes instead of a standard GUID string. This is considered a breaking change and is the reason for the full version increase.
• Improved consistency of properties (the Python kind, not the MSG kind) so that properties for the raw data used to create an instance will all use the same name. Not all classes have this, but the ones that do will now all use rawData as the property name.
• Fixed the properties header being read in a way that actually swapped the values in it.
• Modified MSGFile to use the same name for Properties instances as all other classes. MSGFile.mainProperties will currently raise a DeprecationWarning instead of outright failing to help ease the transition. Use MSGFile.props instead.
