* Deprecate all actorFor methods
* resolveActorRef in provider
* Identify auto receive message
* Support ActorPath in actorSelection
* Support remote actor selections
* Additional tests of actor selection
* Update tests (keep most actorFor tests)
* Update samples to use actorSelection
* Updates to documentation
* Migration guide, including motivation
* Sending to a previous incarnation of an actor shall fail,
to make remote actors work the same way as local ones (in
the sense that after Terminated() the ref is not working anymore)
* Changed equality of ActorRef to take the uid into account
* Parse uid fragment in RelativeActorPath and ActorPathExtractor
* Handle uid in getChild and in RemoteSystemDaemon
* Use toSerializationFormat and toSerializationFormatWithAddress
in serialization
* Replaced var uid in ActorCell and ChildRestartStats with
constructor parameters (path)
* Create the uid in one single place, in makeChild in parent
* Handle ActorRef with and without uid in DeathWatch
* Optimize ActorPath.toString and friends
* Update documentation and migration guide
* To make it possible to override with application
specific logging, or mute logging for certain failures
* Changed log level of Resume failures to WARNING, which
caused all the changes to the tests
* Previous work-around was introduced because Netty blocks when sending
to broken connections. This is supposed to be solved by the non-blocking
new remoting.
* Removed HeartbeatSender and CoreSender in cluster
* Added tests to verify that broken connections don't disturb live connection
