No way to remove attachments

While attaching files to events I found out that there is no way to remove attached files. The only way is to completely clear the scope which is not feasible without losing a lot of information.

Would it be possible to add a clearAttachments() method in Scope analogously to the clearBreadcrumbs() method?

Currently I have to resort to reflection to manually clear the attachments CopyOnWriteArrayList…

I’m going to open up a PR to update the docs. @marandaneto we should also update them for Java after releasing this PR. PR for Apple docs.

That would also be a valid solution, but it seems weird to me design wise… Attaching for a single event is already possible using withScope instead of configureScope… This would result in having this functionality twice (even though your proposed solution is more powerful and would cover my use-case whereas withScope does not).

I would greatly prefer a way to manipulate the global scope as it is already possible with other scope based values like breadcrumbs, tags, contexts or extras. All of those have different means of also removing not only adding. Having a clearAttachments (or alternatively getAttachments being public and a removeAttachment method) would IMHO be a solution more in line with the rest of the API… (it almost looks like an oversight that this is not possible for attachments right now)
