Functions 0.6.10453 (1.0.0-beta1-10453)

Main things in this release are called out below.

• Enabling function timeouts (#18)
  • Default execution timeout of 5 minutes is enforced. If a function runs longer than that it will be terminated.
  • timeout is only enforced on Dynamic SKUs
  • timeout can be configured via functionTimeout property in host.json
• Imposing some naming restrictions on function names + binding names (#15). See Renaming a Function for instructions on renaming if you have a name that doesn't match the new rules.
• Support for function return bindings (#675)
  • naming an output binding $return maps it to the function return value
  • for C#/F#/Node, this allows simpler, more idiomatic code to be written (i.e. no out/byref parameters required)
• Allow Node.js functions to return Promises (#158)
• Moved to Node.js version 6.5.0
• EventHub Consumer group fix (#570)
• Binding fixes for ManualTrigger (#628)
• lots of additional bug fixes
