v1.8.2 Release

Highlights

Cron is deprecated in Temporal.

• There are issues with cron like continue as new will lose the cron schedule: https://community.temporal.io/t/temporal-cron-questions/201/3
• Also the execution timeout cannot be set correctly.

As a result it's now replaced with Schedule.

• Default to continueAsNew with disable sys search attributes by @longquanzheng in #357
• Fix broken integ test assertion for workflowConfig by @longquanzheng in #358
• Replace cron with temporal schedule by @longquanzheng in #361
