Preview: Azure SDK for Go 12.0.0

Preview version 12.0.0-beta of the Azure SDK for Go is now available to help you use Azure services from Go applications. To get it, run go get -u github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/..., or use our newly-introduced support for dep and add the following lines to your Gopkg.toml:

Changes in this version include:

• Long-running (asynchronous) operations now return a future-like construct that can be used to poll for operation completion. Previously, such operations returned channels and polling was handled internally by the library.
• Support for API versions and profiles added. Use the services/... or profiles/... paths in import statements to choose specific versions and avoid unexpected breaking changes. See our wiki for more info.
• Support for context added. Library methods now all expect a Context struct as their first parameter.
• Support for dep added and for glide removed.
• API for iterating over pageable results simplified.
• New services added:
  • Azure Cosmos DB via MongoDB API
  • Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
  • Microsoft Cognitive Services: Custom Search, Entity Search, Image Search, News Search, Video Search, Web Search, and Spell Check
