Summary
Changes
This PR adds a new callout in the SQS processing section of the Batch Processing docs to clarify that order of processing is not guaranteed by default, and nudges customers to look into changing the default behavior or using the SQS FIFO processor (see below):
The PR also adds additional clarifications around this topic in the section dedicated to sequential batch processing (second paragraph above code snippet in code below):
The PR also cleans up outdated sections and marks the sync methods as deprecated and to be removed in the next major version, since the asynchronous one can transparently cover for both, and we have this item in our v3 discussion (#2560).
Issue number: closes #4080
