Change of parameters naming in BBB2.6.0 #243

Description

https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/2.6/new-features/#change-of-parameters-naming

In 2.5 we had the hidePresentation which was responsible for disabling presentation Area, and it was configured in the join call. Now we have a new disabled feature which is responsible for that. it is called disabledFeatures=presentation, and it is configured in the create call, for more details see the docs.

There is another parameter renamed in 2.6, it is swapLayout, or userdata-bbb_auto_swap_layout in the join call. Now, this parameter is set to hidePresentationOnJoin or userdata-bbb_hide_presentation_on_join in the join call, and it does essentially the same thing: it starts meeting with presentation minimized.

In brief:
2.5 JOIN hidePresentation -> 2.6 CREATE disabledFeatures=presentation (permanent disabling of presentation area for all users)
2.5 JOIN swapLayout -> 2.6 JOIN hidePresentation (join a meeting with presentation area hidden, not permanently)
