0.8.0 (2020-09-22)

Added

• Implemented set_disconnected_callback in the .NET backend BleakClient implementation.
• Added find_device_by_address method to the BleakScanner interface, for stopping scanning
  when a desired address is found.
• Implemented find_device_by_address in the .NET backend BleakScanner implementation and
  switched its BleakClient implementation to use that method in connect.
• Implemented find_device_by_address in the BlueZ backend BleakScanner implementation and
  switched its BleakClient implementation to use that method in connect.
• Implemented find_device_by_address in the Core Bluetooth backend BleakScanner implementation
  and switched its BleakClient implementation to use that method in connect.
• Added text representations of Protocol Errors that are visible in the .NET backend. Added these texts to errors raised.
• Added pairing method in BleakClient interface.
• Implemented pairing method in .NET backend.
• Implemented pairing method in the BlueZ backend.
• Added stumps and NotImplementedError on pairing in macOS backend.
• Added the possibility to connect using BLEDevice instead of a string address. This
  allows for skipping the discovery call when connecting.

Removed

• Support for Python 3.5.

Changed

• BREAKING CHANGE All notifications now have the characteristic's integer handle instead of its UUID as a
  string as the first argument sender sent to notification callbacks. This provides the uniqueness of
  sender in notifications as well.
• Renamed BleakClient argument address to address_or_ble_device.
• Version 0.5.0 of BleakUWPBridge, with some modified methods and implementing IDisposable.
• Merged #224. All storing and passing of event loops in bleak is removed.
• Removed Objective C delegate compliance checks. Merged #253.
• Made context managers for .NET DataReader and DataWriter.

Fixed

• .NET backend loop handling bug entered by #224 fixed.
• Removed default DEBUG level set to bleak logger. Fixes #251.
• More coherency in logger uses over all backends. Fixes #258
• Attempted fix of #255 and #133: cleanups, disposing of objects and creating new BleakBridge instances each disconnect.
• Fixed some type hints and docstrings.
• Modified the connected_peripheral_delegate handling in macOS backend to fix #213 and #116.
• Merged #270, fixing a critical bug in get_services method in Core Bluetooth backend.
• Improved handling of disconnections and is_connected in BlueZ backend to fix #259.
• Fix for set_disconnected_callback on Core Bluetooth. Fixes #276.
• Safer Core Bluetooth presence check. Merged #280.
