Update QRCoder to Version 1.6.0

[T0biii]

I tried to update QR coder from Version 1.3.3 to Version 1.6.0 https://www.nuget.org/packages/QRCoder/1.6.0

how did you do that back then?
Thats what i tried:

1. i downloaded the .nupkg file
2. i unziped it
3. in the lib folder are QRCoder.dll for net35, net40, netstandard1.1, netstandard2.0
4. than i run the QRCodeDLLtoBase64.ps1 skript for the net35 .dll file to get the base64 decoded Version

it seems to work on my machine, but i dont wont to break compatibility

Breaking Changes

• If the function GenerateQrCode(payload, eccLevel) is called and the payload has set an ECC level "X" that differs from the ECC level from the parameter eccLevel, the QRCoder now throws an ArgumentOutOfRangeException to prevent the contract violation in the context of the payload. (Previously, the EccLevel was taken from eccLevel parameter without further checking, which in the worst case could lead to unreadable payloads.)

Deprecations

• class QRCoder.Extensions.CustomExtensions
• class QRCoder.Extensions.StringValueAttribute
