Tweaks
- This release requires a number of updates to our add-ons for full compatiblity due to the optimization of how we handle donor session data and additional refactoring of the database schema. Please ensure you update all your add-ons after updating for full compatibility. If you have any issues with the update feel free to reach out to our support. [GiveWP Plugin Support](https://givewp.com/support/)
- Improved the database update process so that even if AJAX is inaccessible by the plugin updates can still be ran. The only difference is that admins will have to remain on the page while the upgrade runs. AJAX was used for background updates, but if it's not able to be used the background process is removed and a notice displays prompting the admin to remain on page. [#3420](https://github.com/wordimpress/give/issues/3420), [#3393](https://github.com/wordimpress/give/issues/3393)

- Refactored the multiple methods to delete donors so now there is a singular method for donor deletion that is extensible. For more info see [this developers blog post](https://developers.givewp.com/2018/07/24/give-2-2-0-singular-method-for-donor-deletion-process/).
