1.3.0

As part of this release we had 215 commits which resulted in 40 issues being closed.

This is a feature release, with a focus on performance. Noteworthy changes:

• Support for OpenID Connect authentication, so you can log into Sync Gateway using a 3rd-party identity like a Google or Yahoo ID.
• Timed expiration of documents can help keep your database from growing indefinitely.
• Better performance with docs that have many revisions. Replication is faster, and older revisions are now automatically cleaned up in SQLite storage.
• Eliminate HttpClient library, and replace with OkHttp
• And of course many smaller optimizations, and lots of bug fixes.
