• Update Cython to 3.0.10 to reduce C warnings and future support for Python 3.13.
• Stop using C++ mode in Cython to reduce compile error on some compilers.
• Packer() has buf_size option to specify initial size of internal buffer to reduce reallocation.
• The default internal buffer size of Packer() is reduced from 1MiB to 256KiB to optimize for common use cases. Use buf_size if you are packing large data.
• Timestamp.to_datetime() and Timestamp.from_datetime() become more accurate by avoiding floating point calculations. (#591)
• The Cython code for Unpacker has been slightly rewritten for maintainability.
• The fallback implementation of Packer() and Unpacker() now uses keyword-only arguments to improve compatibility with the Cython implementation.
