4.0.0

This release contains the following breaking changes:

• Changed: The permissions property of FileInfo is now undefined if no Unix permissions are present. This is the case if for example the FTP server does not actually run on Unix. Before, permissions would have been set to 000. If permissions are present there is a good chance that a command like SITE CHMOD will work for the current server.
• Changed: MLSD is now the default directory listing command. If the connected server doesn't support it, the library will continue using the LIST command. This might have an impact on reported permissions for a file. It is possible although rare that a server running on Unix would have reported permissions with LIST but doesn't do so with MLSD.
• Changed: If you've been parsing date of FileInfo, you might have to consider a new ISO format coming with MLSD listings, e.g. 2018-10-25T12:04:59.000Z. Better yet, use the parsed date directly with modifiedAt and only use date if it is undefined. Be aware that parsing dates reported by the LIST command is likely unreliable.

Non-breaking changes:

• Added: Support for MLSD directory listing. This is a machine-readable directory listing format that provides modification dates that can be reliably parsed. Listings by the older command LIST have not been designed to be machine-readable and are notoriously hard to parse.
• Added: The property modifiedAt of FileInfo may hold a parsed date if the FTP server supports the MLSD command. Note that the property date is not parsed but only a human-readable string coming directly from the original listing response.
• Added: New API sendIgnoringError to send an FTP command and ignoring a resulting FTP error. Using the boolean flag as the second argument of send has been deprecated.
• Added: Sending OPTS UTF8 ON when accessing a server.
