Patch Release 4.1.2

This patch release is identical to 4.1.0, save for the following fixes:

• Don't load libtreelite.so with symbols visible globally. This breaks downstream packages that embeds Treelite as a library. Global visibility should only be enabled for special environments such as Conda.

Patch release 4.1.1

This patch release is identical to 4.1.0, save for the following fixes:

• Restore support for Python 3.8
• PyPy compatibility patch
• Load libtreelite.so with symbols visible globally

What's new

• Native support for multi-target models
• Complete support for XGBoost 2.0, including vector-leaf trees (multi_strategy="multi_output_tree")
• Greater variety of scikit-learn estimators, including HistGradientBoostingRegressor and HistGradientBoostingClassifier.
• Vector base_scores, to support boosting from the average
• Brand-new model builder API with built-in model validation
• Ability to edit trees using field accessor API
• We now provide a pre-built binary wheel targeting ARM64 (aarch64) architecture.

Bug fixes

• Fix base_scores for sklearn GradientBoostingClassifier by @hcho3 in #536
• Fix model concatenation by @hcho3 in #538
• Don't fetch GTest if it's found by CMake by @trxcllnt in #540

Breaking change
