This version fixes a bug that caused the node to fail when trying to save its context to a context store that does not support synchronous access. Since the node cannot tell whether or not the context store selected by the user supports synchronous operations, the new version uses the form for asynchronous access everywhere. A similar [update](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/issue-with-persistent-context-when-using-q-gate/50886/20) was made to `node-red-contrib-queue-gate`.

This change is intended to be backward compatible with the previous version, and users who are not affected by this issue do not need to upgrade. Please report bugs or issues here or on [GitHub](https://github.com/drmibell/node-red-contrib-simple-gate/issues).

[EDIT] Warning: users running versions of NR 0.18 and earlier should NOT upgrade, as the new version will not operate properly.
