Changed

- Fixed typo in UploadTask.status which caused exception when handling certain failure conditions
- FeatureCollection.upload parameter max_errors was not being passed to Vector client.
- Ensure cloudpickle==0.4.0 is version used when creating Tasks.
- Eliminate redundant queries from FeatureCollection.list.

Added
- `FeatureCollection.upload` and `Vector.upload_features` now accept an optional `max_errors` parameter to control how many errors are acceptable before declaring an upload a failure.
- `UploadTask` (as returned by `FeatureCollection.upload` and `Vector.list_uploads`) now has added attributes to better identify what was processed and what errors occurred.
- `Storage` now has added methods `set_file` and `get_file` to allow for better uploading and downloading, respectively, of large files.
- `Storage` class now has an `exists()` method that checks whether an object exists in storage at the location of a given `key` and returns a boolean.
- `Scenes.search` allows `limit=None`
- `FeatureCollection.delete_features` added to support deleting `Feature`s that match a `filter`
- `FeatureCollection.delete_features` and `FeatureCollection.wait_for_copy` now use `AsyncJob` to poll for asynchronous job completion.
- `Vector.delete_features_from_query` and `Vector.get_delete_features_status` added to support new `FeatureCollection` and `AsyncJob` methods.

Changed
- Fixed tasks bugs when including modules with relative paths in `sys.path`

Added
- Tasks now support passing modules, data and requirements along with the function code, allowing for a more complex and customized execution environment.
- Vector search query results now report their total number of results by means of the standard `len()` function.

Changed
- `Metadata.search` no longer has a 10,000-item limit, and the number of items returned will be closer to `limit`.

Added
- Raster client can now handle arbitrarily large numbers of tiles generated from a shape using the new iter_dltiles_from_shape() method which allows you to iterate over large numbers of tiles in a time- and memory-efficient manner. Similarly the existing dltiles_from_shape() method can now handle arbitrarily large numbers of tiles although it can be very slow.
- Vector client upload_features() can now upload contents of a stream (e.g. io.IOBase derivative such as io.StringIO) as well as the contents of a named file.
- Vector FeatureCollection add() method can now handle an arbitrary number of Features. Use of the upload_features() method is still encouraged for large collections.
- Vector client now supports creating a new product from the results of a query against an existing product with the create_product_from_query() method. This support is also accessible via the new FeatureCollection.copy() method.
- XYZTile GeoContext class, helpful for rendering to web maps that use XYZ-style tiles in a spherical Mercator CRS.

Changed
- Tasks client FutureTask now instantiates a client if none provided (the default).
- Catalog client methods now properly handle add_namespace parameter.
- Vector Feature now includes valid geojson type 'Feature'.
- Tasks client now raises new GroupTerminalException if a task group stops accepting tasks.
- General documentation fixes.

Added
- Scenes and raster clients have a `processing_level` parameter that can be used to turn on surface reflectance processing for products that support it

Changed
- `scenes.GeoContext`: better defaults and `bounds_crs` parameter
- `bounds` are no longer limited to WGS84, but can be expressed in any `bounds_crs`
- New `Scene.default_ctx` uses a Scene's `geotrans` to more accurately determine a `GeoContext` that will result in no warping of the original data, better handling sinusoidal and other non-rectilinear coordinate reference systems.
- **Important:** the default GeoContexts will now return differently-sized rasters than before!
They will now be more accurate to the original, unwarped data, but if you were relying on the old defaults, you should now explicitly set the `bounds` to `geometry.bounds`,
`bounds_crs` to `"EPSG:4326"`, and `align_pixels` to True.
- `Scene.coverage` and `SceneCollection.filter_coverage` accept any geometry-like object, not just a `GeoContext`.
