+Flushes all pending events and disables the SDK. Note that this does not
+remove any listeners the SDK may have set up. After a call to `close`, the current client cannot be used anymore. It's
+important to only call `close` immediately before shutting down the application.
+
+Alternatively, the [`flush`](#flush) method drains the event queue while keeping the
+client enabled for continued use.
