4.4.1

This version brings several smaller features and fixes to 4.4.0. We recommended migrating to this version. No breaking changes, so it is a drop-in replacement to 4.4.0.

Important: due to bitcode recompilation bug in original 4.4.1, a hotfix version 4.4.1.1 is available. Please use this version instead when targeting iOS. Other platforms are not affected.
