Maintenance Release for Akka.NET 1.4

Akka.NET v1.4.12 is a relatively minor release, but it includes some breaking changes:

• BREAKING CHANGE: Akka.Cluster.Sharding: batch update - includes some important updates for rebalancing shards more quickly, handling rolling updates, and using the new AppVersion type introduced in Akka.NET v1.4.11 to avoid allocating shards onto nodes that are being replaced during an upgrade. The breaking change: renamed the Akka.Cluster.Sharding.TunningParameters to Akka.Cluster.Sharding.TuningParameters in order to fix a misspelling. This changes the public API of all of the Akka.Cluster.Sharding settings classes - it shouldn't affect your Akka.NET application directly, but it will affect any plugins built on top of Akka.Cluster.Sharding.
• Akka.Streams: Make DistinctRetainingFanOutPublisher a public member - needed to update Akka.Persistence plugins to implement Akka.Persistence.Query "CurrentPersistenceIds` queries correctly.
• Introduce Akka.Discovery Module - introduces the brand new Akka.Discovery module, which allows Akka.NET services to discover Akka.Cluster seed endpoints, Kafka nodes, and more via a variety of methods. This module is still in beta as of 1.4.12 but it will be developed, documented, and incorporated into more tutorials + modules as it matures. You can read more about Akka.Discovery here: https://getakka.net/articles/discovery/index.html
