v6.0.0

Using SotoCore v6.0.0
Using AWS models from Release (2022-06-17)

Major release changes

• The major change in v6 is in actual an internal change, but it affects everything. We have moved from generating the AWS Service files from the json model files to the new Smithy format model files. There is a formal spec for the Smithy format unlike the original json files. AWS are moving to using Smithy for all of their SDKs.
• The Soto service code generator is now a separate project, instead of being in the same repo as Soto, and can be found here.
• In theory the above changes shouldn't affect the end user but with this move some service names have changed and some APIs have changed name.
• It is now required you use AsyncHTTPClient with Soto. Previously a AWSHTTPClient protocol was available which you could conform to. This change has been implemented to reduce the API surface of Soto and to allow us more flexibility in how we integrate with the HTTP client.
• There have been a number of fixes to enum and variable names. Enums are now camel cased, previously they were all lowercased. Variable names that started with an uppercase acronym now capitalise correctly. Previously the first letter of the name was lowercased, ignoring the rest of the acronym. This gave us eC2InstanceDetails instead of ec2InstanceDetails. This is now fixed.
• Add Sendable conformance to many public symbols. This includes AWSClient, AWSService, CredentialProvider and all service API input/output shapes. PR Sendable #590
• Replace all usages of Foundation.Data in service API input/output shapes with AWSBase64Data. PR Replace usage of Foundation.Data with AWSBase64Data #591
• Added final to all API input and output shapes that are classes.
