Replace obsolete Picasa API with new Google Photos API.

Google Photos API is currently developer preview and supports only limited functions. I removed following functions for the time being.

Update an album name
Remove/Update photos
- If you modify a photo and try to re-publish it, both old and new ones are exist in a album.
- Even if you remove a photo in Lightroom Collection and try to re-publish it, the photo remains in the album.

I'm curious why did you decide to move to the new API if it requires to disable some of the product functions?

stanaka commented 6 years ago

@mturilin The main reason of this move is that Picasa Web Album Data API is getting broken.

They have already stopped to support mutation operations ( https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/Google-Picasa-Data-API/7A3uDiiPKI0 ). This means I'm just going to disable features which have been already almost broken.

@chibiegg can't merge something that has conflicts.

chibiegg commented 6 years ago

@N6REJ I know it. But, I have no permission to resolve conflicts of this branch. I confirmed that it works in rebased branch. ( https://github.com/chibiegg/lightroom-google-photo-plugin/tree/new-api )

It is easy to resolve conflict because there is only one error message conflicting.

@chibiegg @N6REJ Sorry for the delay. It's now merged!
