Big updates:

• GET users, themes, channels and subjects call now supports pagination system.
• Updated UserController with the new calls and new refactored model system.

New calls:

New

• Added Ios Push
• Added PUT call to set the same option value to all preferences (i.e. disable all notifications, enable all to all devices, enable all but only by email, ...).
• Added option in order to restrict unicast notifications send per day from the same theme.
• Added delay time to all workers if the notification requires it.
• Added new route that retrives the smartphones that user has registered.
• Added a redirect restriction on push notifications messages.
