/**
* Native C++ interface for interaction with TDLib.
*
* The TDLib instance is created for the lifetime of the Client object.
* Requests to TDLib can be sent using the Client::send method from any thread.
* New updates and responses to requests can be received using the Client::receive method from any thread,
* this function shouldn't be called simultaneously from two different threads. Also note that all updates and
* responses to requests should be applied in the same order as they were received, to ensure consistency.
* Given this information, it's advisable to call this function from a dedicated thread.
* Some service TDLib requests can be executed synchronously from any thread by using the Client::execute method.
*
* General pattern of usage:
* \code
* std::shared_ptr<td::Client> client = std::make_shared<td::Client>();
* // somehow share the client with other threads, which will be able to send requests via client->send
*
* const double WAIT_TIMEOUT = 10.0; // seconds
* bool is_closed = false; // should be set to true, when updateAuthorizationState with
* // authorizationStateClosed is received
* while (!is_closed) {
* auto response = client->receive(WAIT_TIMEOUT);
* if (response.object == nullptr) {
* continue;
* }
*
* if (response.id == 0) {
* // process response.object as an incoming update of type td_api::Update
* } else {
* // process response.object as an answer to a sent request with id response.id
* }
* }
* \endcode
