v13.1.0

This release introduces Diff Updates to reduce CodePush update download sizes.

Diff Update Support

• Asset Diff downloads only the JS bytecode diff and newly added assets based on the currently running CodePush update.
• Binary Patch distributes only the difference between the JS bytecode embedded in the app binary and the new bundle.
• Updates automatically fall back through Asset Diff → Binary Patch → Full Update when a preferred method is unavailable or fails to apply.

Monitoring Improvements

• Callback metadata has been extended to indicate which update method was actually downloaded and applied.
• Errors thrown from telemetry callbacks are now isolated from the update process.
