v2.0.0: Switch to GraphQL API for latest version support #23

Closed MickeyKay closed 3 years ago

This PR drastically simplifies the BFA library, with some key improvements:

Cuts over to use the Font Awesome GraphQL API for all data, consolidating the previous multiple API calls to a single optimized call.
Removes the ability to select a specific version, instead defaulting to the latest version always.
Removes the ability to select unminified CSS.
Adds the ability to include the Font Awesome v4 shim CSS for backwards compatibility.
Deprecates a few legacy functions, filters, and args.
