Participant class in Open Channel

Participant is a new interface for User who joined Open Channel. It's optimized for scalability and contains much lighter information about the User than a Member in Group Channel.
Now clients can implement Open Channels easier in SDK with more built-in capabilities. You can compare how Member, Participant, and User are different here.

• Participant holds essential information about the participant like below. They contain their muted status (is_muted) on top of basic User information.

@objc(SBDParticipant)
public class Participant: User {

    @objc
    public internal(set) var isMuted: Bool

    @objc
    public func serialize() -> Data?

    @objc
    public class func build(fromSerializedData data: Data?) -> Self?
}

• ParticipantListQuery.loadNextPage(completionHandler: @escaping UserListHandler) now returns [Participant]
  • For backward compatibility, the UsersHandler returns User list, but it can be casted into Participant
