Preferred to the system contact picker because:
1. removes "group" clutter from header, unlikely to be used much.
2. can select while searching
3. fixes unified contact problem where e.g.
If only one of your contact has a phone number, they appear disabled
when choosing to invite via messaging, even though the other linked
contact *does* have a phone number.
4. label users w/o email so it's clearer why they can't be selected
Also:
* Twitter share-image was too tall
// FREEBIE
* Spruce up compose contact-picker
- Fix random sorting for contacts missing first or last name
- Add Avatar to contact picker
- de-dupe contacts
Better copy for INVALID_MESSAGE error.
// FREEBIE
Some folks get the wrong idea and think Signal Service knows their name,
when really, we were just showing them the entry for the registered
phone number in their address book.
In any case, presumably the user already knows their name, so we don't
need to remind them.

* Separate registering an account from registering for push notifications
* Allows us to complete registration without prompting user for
notification settings.
UX Changes
----------
* Automatically keep push tokens in sync on startup.
Push tokens *can* change, though they rarely do. It happens more often
for people switching between appstore/beta builds.
fixes#1174
* Show alert with registration failure
* add secret 8-tap debug log gesture to registration flow
* Move registration to separate flow
* don't see flash of inbox when first launching
* show useful error messages when given wrong code / no code
* remove background fetch
We werent using it, but only relying on a side effect of it which is
no longer necessary.
Code Changes
------------
* More registration logging.
* Install PromiseKit with carthage
Our dependencies are not yet framework compatible, so we can't use
cocoapods.
* Merge preferences util "category" into superclass.
The immediate reason for this is Swift interop was assuming optional
types were not optional, and exploding when a value was nil.
This is clearer anyway, since we were treating it like a subclass, and
it was the only thing using the class anyway.
* auto-genstrings now searches *.swift (and *.h, which was previously
broken) for translateable strings.
// FREEBIE
* Inline #define strings, so genstrings can find them
* Make all strings single line so they don't get truncated by auto-genstrings
* Properly quote LHS in strings file
// FREEBIE
* New bg (Bulgarian) localization!
* New sq (Albanian) localization!
* replace unfinished bg_BG localization with complete bg localization
* caps keys to make it easier to see missing localizations
* pull with newly pushed source keys
// FREEBIE
- Using same clang format file for old and new files.
- Moving out all TextSecure code to allow other clients (OS X, iOS) to
integrate easily TextSecure functionality.
- Use TextSecure API to signup.
- Fixing size classes rendering bugs.
- Supporting native iOS San Francisco font.
- Quick Reply
- Settings now slide to the left as suggested in original designed
opposed to modal.
- Simplification of restraints on many screens.
- Full-API compatiblity with iOS 9 and iOS 8 legacy support.
- Customized AddressBook Permission prompt when restrictions are
enabled. If user installed Signal previously and already approved
access to Contacts, don't bugg him again.
- Fixes crash in migration for users who installed Signal <2.1.3 but hadn't signed up
yet.
- Xcode 7 / iOS 9 Travis Support
- Bitcode Support is disabled until it is better understood how exactly
optimizations are performed. In a first time, we will split out the
crypto code into a separate binary to make it easier to optimize the
non-sensitive code. Blog post with more details coming.
- Partial ATS support. We are running our own Certificate Authority at
Open Whisper Systems. Signal is doing certificate pinning to verify
that certificates were signed by our own CA. Unfortunately Apple's App
Transport Security requires to hand over chain verification to their
framework with no control over the trust store. We have filed a radar
to get ATS features with pinned certificates. In the meanwhile, ATS is
disabled on our domain. We also followed Amazon's recommendations for
our S3 domain we use to upload/download attachments. (#891)
