🟡 Changes recommended
The ReleaseAll() warning gives misleading migration guidance, and the new tests do not verify warning level or that path’s message.

What changed in this PR
This PR deprecates releasing a realtime channel before it is detached, preparing callers for the next major version’s stricter behavior.
Changes:
- Log a deprecation warning for releases in non-terminal channel states, including calls through
ReleaseAll(). - Document the deprecation and add warning tests for
Release().

Spec 6.3.0 deletes RTS4a, under which Channels.Release() detaches a channel not already in the Initialized, Detached or Failed state before removing it, and replaces it with RTS4e, under which Release() raises error 90011 instead. RTS4b lets SDKs that already implement the old behaviour keep it until their next major version, provided they log a deprecation warning when it takes effect. ReleaseAll() goes through the same path, so it warns too, naming itself. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Implements RTS4b from spec 6.3.0 (ably/specification#557). Calling
Channels.Release(name)orChannels.ReleaseAll()on a realtime channel that isn'tInitialized,DetachedorFailedstill detaches it and removes it once the detach completes. It now also logs a deprecation warning, because in the next major version this will throw error 90011. Users should callchannel.Detach()(orDetachAsync()) and wait for it to complete before releasing.Releasedocstring notes the deprecation.The next-major change is in #1358. Reference ably-js PRs: ably/ably-pubsub-js#2322 (deprecation) and ably/ably-pubsub-js#2323 (next major).
