0.11.0

Release notes:

This release marks a significant milestone in thin-edges's history. The thin-edge.io components have been refactored to use an Actor model which improves the internal project structure and lays the ground work for even faster releases, with even more features in the future (and not to mention even easier to test features 💯).

Functionally, everything will work as it did before, however you may notice that the traceability of each component has improved significantly, allowing you to better reason with what is going on.

A big thanks to the core team who worked very hard over the last few months to make this happen ❤️
