* The menu class takes 3 mandatory parameters and 5 optional parameters.
* 1) A channel to send the menu to, it can be null so it will send DMs to the user.
* 2) A user to give control over the navigation or send DM if channel is null.
* 3) An array of Page objects or DiscordEmbedMenuPage, each being a unique page of the menu.
* 4) How long, in milliseconds, you want the menu to wait for new reactions, it can be null so it will wait for ever (not recommended).
* 5) If it shall or not delete the message on menu timeout.
* 6) If it shall mention menu's user on discord channels.
* 7) If it shall keep last user reaction when you call stop.
* 8) The message to be displayed when it's loading the menu page.

* A page object consists of three items:
* 1) A name. This is used as a unique destination name for reactions.
* 2) Some content. This is a rich embed. You can use {object: formatting} or .functionFormatting() for embeds. Whichever you prefer.
* 3) A set of reactions, linked to either a page destination or a function.* (See example pages)
*
* Reactions can be emojis or custom emote IDs, and reaction destinations can be either the names
* of pages, () => { functions }, or special destination names. See below for a list of these.

| Destination | Function |
|---|---|
| first | Goes to the first page in the array. |
| last | Goes to the last page in the array. |
| previous | Goes to the previous page in the array. |
| next | Goes to the next page in the array. |
| stop | Removes reactions from the embed and stops updating the menu. |
| delete | Stops the menu and deletes the message. |
Calling a page one of these wouldn't work, it prioritizes special destinations.
