* Add asynchronous stimulus dispatching to workflow runtime
Introduced the BackgroundStimulusDispatcher and related components to enable asynchronous stimulus dispatching. Updated event publishing logic to support both synchronous and asynchronous delivery. These changes improve extensibility and allow better performance for handling workflow stimuli.
* Update event publishing to include isAsync parameter
Added a boolean parameter to differentiate between asynchronous and synchronous event publishing. Ensured correct value is passed based on workflow execution mode, improving clarity and functionality. Removed outdated TODO comment.
* Fix default value for Asynchronous and add activity type helper
Set the default value of the Asynchronous input property to `true` in `PublishEvent`. Additionally, utilize `ActivityTypeNameHelper` in `EventPublisher` to generate activity type names for improved consistency and clarity.
* Remove unused import from EventPublisher.cs
Eliminated the unnecessary import of Elsa.Workflows.Runtime.Requests. This cleanup helps reduce code clutter and improves maintainability.
* Set default value for Asynchronous property and update Payload.
Added a default value of `true` for the `Asynchronous` property to ensure consistency in event delivery behavior. Also, removed the unnecessary default value from the `Payload` property description for clarity.
* Simplify XML doc comment in IStimulusDispatcher interface
Refined the XML documentation for the `SendAsync` method by shortening the description and clarifying the statement. This improves readability and maintains the intent of the comment.
* Add MassTransit stimulus dispatching functionality
Introduced `DispatchStimulusRequestConsumer` and associated consumer definitions to enable stimulus dispatching. Added `MassTransitStimulusDispatcher` service and related options for configuring concurrency and endpoint behavior. Updated `MassTransitWorkflowDispatcherFeature` to register the stimulus dispatcher and allow enhanced dispatch configuration.
* Refactor stimulus dispatching to use a serialized message.
Introduced `DispatchStimulus` to encapsulate serialized requests. Updated dispatch logic to utilize `IPayloadSerializer` for serialization and deserialization, enabling message transport in a lightweight format.
* Remove Asynchronous input property from PublishEvent activity
The Asynchronous input property was removed as it was unnecessary, with a hardcoded `true` value now passed directly to the event publisher. This simplifies the code and ensures consistency in how events are published.
* Remove ProtoStringExtensions and consolidate string utilities.
Moved `EmptyIfNull` and `NullIfEmpty` methods to the existing `StringExtensions` class in `Elsa.Workflows.Core` for centralization. Updated references to use the consolidated extension methods. Deleted `ProtoStringExtensions` as it is now redundant.
* Add missing imports for Elsa.Extensions across mappers
Added `using Elsa.Extensions` to multiple mapper files in the runtime module. This ensures consistent access to shared extension methods, improving code clarity and reducing potential errors.
* Add missing Elsa.Extensions namespace to WorkflowInstance
The `using Elsa.Extensions` directive was added to ensure access to required extensions. This resolves potential issues with missing dependencies or functionality in the `WorkflowInstance` class.
* Add proper summary tags back
* Apply suggestions from code review

* Add error handling with fault categories and codes
The code now includes error handling through the introduction of fault categories and codes. New files containing constants for fault categories and codes have been added for different modules. FaultException has also been updated to include these properties. Changes are evident in various files where FaultException is thrown for error handling.
* Add DotSettings file for Elsa.Alterations module
A new DotSettings file is added for the Elsa.Alterations module. This includes configuration for namespace folders to be skipped during CodeInspection.
* Renamed "DefaultFaultKinds" to "DefaultFaultTypes" and updated usages
This commit renames the class "DefaultFaultKinds" to "DefaultFaultTypes" and updates all its references across the project files. The change is made keeping the more accurate naming context i.e., 'Types' suits better in the thrown exception scenarios.
* Add DispatchWorkflowOptions and update MassTransit configuration
Introduced a new class `DispatchWorkflowOptions` to provide workflow dispatch options. Updated MassTransit configuration to include NET6.0 and NET7.0 support, and ensure correct MassTransit version usage per target framework version.
* Add support for configurable MassTransit message dispatching
Implemented a feature which allows for configurable MassTransit message dispatching. Added support for specifying channels and message brokers. Message dispatching code was massively refactored and relevant endpoints and response models were updated to support new message dispatching features.
* Add IEndpointChannelFormatter interface and implementation
An interface for formatting channel queue names, 'IEndpointChannelFormatter', has been added, along with its default implementation 'DefaultEndpointChannelFormatter'. The code that uses hardcoded queue name formatting has been modified to use the new formatter instead, making it more configurable and reusable. The implementation of the formatter uses the 'Humanizer' library to kebab-case the channel names.
* Add channel dispatch option to workflow activities
Introduced `WorkflowDispatcherChannelOptionsProvider` to provide dropdown channel options for workflow dispatch-related activities. Updated `DispatchWorkflow` and `BulkDispatchWorkflows` activities to include a new dropdown input for specifying a dispatch channel. Also, included the selected channel name in the `DispatchWorkflowOptions` during workflow dispatching process.
* Update MassTransit configurations and remove unused code
The MassTransit setup in Elsa.MassTransit module has been simplified by removing conditional code for different .NET versions. Additionally, unused parameter '__X_Channel' in 'DispatchWorkflowDefinition' was removed. Lastly, the MassTransit broker in Elsa.Server.Web was switched from RabbitMq to AzureServiceBus.
* Refactor dispatch workflow classes and methods
Simplified the class, method and variable names related to workflow dispatching in the Elsa.Workflows.Runtime module. For example, the 'WorkflowDispatcherChannelDescriptor' class was renamed to 'DispatcherChannel'. This refactoring was performed to make code more readable and maintainable by removing redundant wording in the naming convention.
* Update GitHub Workflow to support feature and issue branches
The workflow changes add support for feature and issue branches. Now, it extracts the branch name and verifies the commit exists in the given branch rather than just 'main'. The versioning scheme is also modified to include the branch name and not just the run number.
* Add 'bug/*' to triggering branches in packages workflow
The 'bug/*' pattern was missing from the triggers that initiate the GitHub actions within our packages workflow. This update includes any branch with a 'bug/' prefix to the list, allowing bug-related branches to start jobs in our CI/CD pipeline.
* Remove 'issue/*' and 'bug/*' branches from packages workflow
The 'issue/*' and 'bug/*' branches have been removed from the GitHub action workflow for packages. This change was made to simplify the workflow and optimize the triggering of package building.
* Update GitHub workflow to handle main branch versioning
This commit modifies the GitHub workflow script to accommodate changes when the branch name is "main." If the branch name is "main", a preview version is used. It also updates script execution to print the branch name for easier debugging and verifies commit existence on the correct branch instead of dispatch channels.
* Enclose branch names in quotes in packages.yml
The update modifies the branch names in the packages.yml GitHub Actions workflow file. The change consists of enclosing the branch names 'main' and 'feature/*' in single quotes, ensuring compatibility and preventing potential string interpretation issues.
* Update GitHub workflows package configuration
The workflows package configuration has been updated to specifically watch for changes on 'feature/dispatch-channels' rather than on all feature branches. This change will prevent unnecessary builds on less relevant feature branches.
* Update trigger branches in packages workflow
The triggering branches in the packages workflow have been updated. Previously, only changes in the 'main' and 'feature/dispatch-channels' would trigger the workflow, now any 'feature/*' branch will. This will cause more frequent and comprehensive testing.
* Add 'patch/*' to workflow trigger branches
This update adds 'patch/*' to the list of branches in .github/workflows/packages.yml that can trigger the workflow. It will allow the workflow to be initiated not just for main and feature branches, but also for patches.
* Add 'preview/*' to workflow triggers
This commit adds a new trigger for the GitHub Actions workflow. It now also responds to push events on 'preview/*' branches, allowing for automated testing and building of these preview branches.
* Update branch name extraction in GitHub Actions
The extraction of the branch name has been slightly modified in the packages.yml GitHub workflow file. This alteration ensures the correct branch name is obtained for further processing within the workflow without any discrepancy.
* Update branch name extraction in packages.yml
Corrected the syntax for extracting the branch name within the packages.yml github workflow file. Added an extra line to print out the ref which might be useful for debugging.
* Update branch name extraction in GitHub workflow
The commit simplifies the way the branch name is being extracted from the GitHub ref in the packages.yml workflow file. The new method employs straightforward string manipulation, making it easier to understand and debug in case of potential issues.
* Add extraction of branch name in workflow
Added a new line in the GitHub workflow file (.github/workflows/packages.yml) to extract the last part after the final slash from the branch name. This enhancement allows cleaner naming conventions, especially in cases where branches are named feature/issue-123, as it will only retain 'issue-123'.
* Update package naming in Github workflow
The Github workflow has been updated to handle package naming more effectively. Previously, the branch name was used directly for package versioning. Now, the last part of the branch name is extracted and used as the package prefix. If the branch name is "main", the package prefix is set to "preview".
* Move and add environment variable assignments
The placement of the assignment for BRANCH_NAME environment variable was moved for better readability. Additionally, the PACKAGE_PREFIX environment variable was also added. These environment variables are crucial for subsequent steps in the GitHub workflow.
* Add workflow dispatch validation and response handling
Removed several specific dispatch response classes and consolidated all types of dispatch responses into a single DispatchWorkflowResponse class. Added a new ValidatingWorkflowDispatcher service to validate dispatch requests before they're sent. Updated several classes to work with these changes, including the BackgroundWorkflowDispatcher, MassTransitWorkflowDispatcher, and the API endpoint class.
* Handle dispatch workflow failures with exceptions
The DispatchWorkflow and BulkDispatchWorkflows activities now throw a FaultException when the dispatch operations fail. Previously, these operations were not checking for success and could fail silently. Now, an unsuccessful dispatch response results in a FaultException with an error message from the dispatch response.
Created classes and implemented the basic architecture for workflow cancellation. This includes command handlers, dispatchers, and consumers. However, the actual cancellation logic needs to be implemented later. Also, the Elsa solution file was cleaned up by deleting unnecessary entries.
