Returns an object describing the high-level capabilities supported by the user's
transfer client (e.g. IBM Aspera for desktop, Connect, or HTTP Gateway).
Use this for feature detection at a semantic level rather than checking individual RPC methods.
Capabitilies may depend on multiple underlying RPC methods and also may vary by transfer client.
Some capabitilies may depend on newer versions of the transfer client. This function may be useful
if you want to conditionally perform certain actions rather than potentially getting an error.
