Fixes firebase#134 and firebase#28. Using keyRef.updateChildren instead of keyRef.setValue also fixes a huge amount of unnecessary 'onDataExited(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot)' events which has not been reported yet. keyRef.updateChildren understands if the data needs to be inserted or updated. No need to use setValue here. Since priorities are not relevant anymore (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31577915/what-does-priority-mean-in-firebase) i decided to not consider them anymore.
