Major version

[normanrz]

We are aiming for the next major release of the webknossos and cluster_tools packages. Since, the cluster_tools already use 1.x packages, we should jump to 2.x directly.

TODO (tbd):

• Support renameable datasets and WK API v9 #1231
• Save performance by opening zarr array lazily in open_remote? #1127
• tensorstore  #1174
• Cannot add existing tree to new annotation #1197
• Use webknossos API v8 (organization_id) #1178
• Replace vcr-py for tests #1198
• With the 2.x release, remove some deprecated functionality
  • Remove WrappedProcessPoolExecutor
  • Remove test_pickling executor strategy
  • Remove debug_sequential executor strategy
• Make zarr3 the new default DataFormat
• Make compress=True the default in Layer.add_mag
• Remove deprecated arguments and methods from the Dataset, Layer, MagView etc. classes

Can probably be deferred until zarr is default:

• Harden concurrency assertions for Zarr writing #1080 (perhaps this is only VX issue)

Nice to have but not strictly required:

• Add function to trigger dataset refresh in wk #804
• Accessing list of available remote annotations through Python API #1188
• zarr-support for Dataset.from_images #834
