Sending shared contacts isn't backwards-compatible, so we want to have a
few releases where receiving is enabled, but not sending. That way, when
we enable sending, most users should be able to properly receive the
shared contact messages.
When you share a vCard from an external app (like the Contacts app) into
Signal, we'll now convert it to a pretty Shared Contact message and
allow you to choose which fields of the contact you wish to send.
The "contact" option in the attachments tray now brings you through an
optimized contact sharing flow, allowing you to select specific fields
to share. The contact is then presented as a special message type,
allowing you to interact with the card to add the contact to your system
contacts, invite them to signal, initiate a signal message, etc.
Previously, quotes were not saved to drafts, meaning they would be lost
when leaving the conversation or app. Now, a QuoteId (which represents
the necessary data to restore the QuoteModel) is serialized and stored
in the DraftDatabase.

Previously, we were always rendering images as squares. Instead of doing
that, we now render them as close to true-to-size as possible (within
reasonable min/max width/height boundaries).
In a number of locations in the code, there were conversions of message
expiration times from seconds to milliseconds, and then assigned to `long`
contexts. However these conversions were being done as integer multiplication
rather than long multiplication, meaning that there was a potential for
overflows.
Specifically, the maximum value that could be represented before overflowing
was (2^31 / 1000 / 60 / 60 / 24) days = 24.8 days (< 1 month). Luckily the
current allowed timeouts are all less than that value, but this fix would
remove the artificial restriction, effectively allowing values of 1000x greater
(68 years), at least for android.

The whole recipient pipeline needs to be changed more subsantially,
particularly given the way directory discovery works with it. This
will temporarily solve the problem though.
