Description

Description

Currently the base BaseSlackClient defines the return type of apiCall and response as Promise<BaseResponse> which represents the json payload returned by the Slack API.

This is an issue since users may want to access more then just the json payload from the Response such as headers and status codes.

In the next major release apiCall and response should return some version of Promise<[Response](https://deno.com/deploy/docs/runtime-response)> instead. It will be a breaking change.

Research direction

Start in src/types.ts at BaseSlackClient and inspect the apiCall and response return types, then trace their usages in the client. Determine the appropriate Response-based return shape for the next major release; done means callers can access the Slack response headers and status codes instead of only the JSON payload.
