* scanning BLE devices
* making connections to peripherals
* discovering services/characteristics
* reading/writing characteristics

Breaking changes:

* Deprecate old build system. Carthage is not required anymore. To fix your current project please do following steps:

1. Add empty Swift file if you don't have at least one:
* Select File/New/File...
* Choose Swift file and click Next.
* Name it however you want, select your targets and create it.
* Accept to create Objective-C bridging header.
2. Remove copy-frameworks script if you don't have any other dependency requiring it:
* Go to Your Target / Build Phases
* Remove run script.

Other:

* Fix warning when no listeners were attached and events were emitted.
* Show error.message properly. Make sure that invalid errorCodes from implementation side won't trigger another error during construction.
* Property ServiceUUID is properly propagated to IncludedServicesDiscoveryFailed's error message.
* Add missing deviceServicesNotDiscovered implementation on Android.
