OneDrive Client Version v2.5.0-rc2

[abraunegg]

Summary of Changes

[!IMPORTANT] OneDrive Client for Linux v2.5.0 contains a database schema change to support the additional functionality and bug fixes in the v2.5.x branch. As such, on your first use of this client version, the database schema will be updated and the client will perform an entire re-validation of your data - both locally and online which will take an extended period of time.

[!CAUTION] OneDrive Client for Linux v2.5.0 is not backwards compatible. Do not use v2.5.0 and v2.4.x applications at the same time against the same Microsoft OneDrive account. If using v2.5.0, you must upgrade all your clients to v2.5.0

[!CAUTION] OneDrive Business Shared Folder Sync has been 100% re-written in v2.5.0. If you are using this feature, please read the new documentation carefully.
