Let developers use :GetFriendStatus() and .FriendStatusChanged

As a Roblox Developer it is currently too hard to create our own playerlists that display friend status icons (friend, friend request sent, etc)

Allowing us access to use player:GetFriendStatus() and player.FriendStatusChanged would let us tell our players that they have sent a friend request or someone has sent them a friend request in game.

I’d really like this to happen, as I also have just run into this problem while creating my own custom leaderboard/playerlist.

Player:GetFriendStatus() isn’t really enough for me as it only tells whether or not a user is friends with another user or not. I really can’t see any way that :GetFriendStatus() and .FriendStatusChanged could be abused.

Had to do a while task.wait(0.5) do check IsFriendsWith on all players to even get friend status, which isn’t good since it doesn’t check pending.
