Proposed change
The xbox-webapi library is pretty outdated and hasn't received any significant updates in 5 years, the only minor release in this time already being 2 years old. I tried to submit PRs to fix the most urgent issues but I haven't got any reaction nor do I expect one anytime soon. I decided to fork the library and not only did i fix the most urgent issues, I also completely modernized the code. It is now fully typed and uses modern typing syntax.
This fixes some things that were dysfunctional, because some data wasn't exposed by the API as the library used outdated endpoints or request headers.
There is also a change to 2 recently added sensors, following and follower, which don't include friends anymore, instead friend count will now have to be be added as a separate sensor.
