Transaction Creation Returns an Object by Default

Previously, DatabaseClient.transactions.open returned a transaction id string by default, and you could use the withState parameter to request a transaction object instead. The use of the string form was deprecated as of MarkLogic 8.

As of MarkLogic 9 and Node.js Client API v2.0.0, DatabaseClient.transactions.open defaults to returning a transaction object.

To force the previous behavior, set withState to false when creating a transaction. This setting is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
