When adding/updating/deleting Alexa spokens from Portal or UD Mobile, changes are now immediately reflected in Alexa.

It's no longer required to ask "Alexa, discover my devices" to send updates to Alexa. This change makes the maintenance of spokens easier and less error prone.

This works as long as the skill is linked. You can still add or update spokens while the skill is not linked, however a device discovery will be required to send updates (it's done automatically after linking).

If you delete spokens while the skill is not linked, then the corresponding Alexa device also has to manually removed from the Alexa app, just like before. A device discovery only add/updates the Alexa devices. It won't remove the spokens removed from portal or UD Mobile.
