Breaking changes

1. .podspec extension is no longer required in your Podfile:

target 'YourAwesomeProject' do

  # …

  permissions_path = '../node_modules/react-native-permissions/ios'

- pod 'Permission-Calendars', :path => "#{permissions_path}/Calendars.podspec"
+ pod 'Permission-Calendars', :path => "#{permissions_path}/Calendars"
- pod 'Permission-Camera', :path => "#{permissions_path}/Camera.podspec"
+ pod 'Permission-Camera', :path => "#{permissions_path}/Camera"

  # …

end

2. request(PERMISSIONS.IOS.PHOTO_LIBRARY) and requestNotifications could now resolve with a RESULTS.LIMITED permission status.

Known issue

Updating the permission status to Ask me next time in your app settings will not update the permission status on Android 11 for now.
