Released Changes
----------------
### v0.5.0
v0.5.0 is a small release -- it just contains a bunch of renames.
There are _no_ semantic changes bundled with this (it's _just_ renames) so this should be easy to absorb.
- Renamed: `NodeStyle` -> `NodePrototype`.
- Reason: it seems to fit better! See https://github.com/ipld/go-ipld-prime/issues/54 for a full discussion.
- This should be a "sed refactor" -- the change is purely naming, not semantics, so it should be easy to update your code for.

### v0.4.0
v0.4.0 contains some misceleanous features and documentation improvements -- perhaps most notably, codegen is re-introduced and more featureful than previous rounds -- but otherwise isn't too shocking.
This tag mostly exists as a nice stopping point before the next version coming up (which is planned to include several API changes).
- Docs: several new example functions should now appear in the godoc for how to use the linking APIs.
- Feature: codegen is back! Use it if you dare.
- Generated code is now up to date with the present versions of the core interfaces (e.g., its updated for the NodeAssembler world).

### v0.0.3
v0.0.3 contained a massive rewrite which pivoted us to using NodeAssembler patterns.
Code predating this version will need significant updates to match; but, the performance improvements that result should be more than worth it.
- Constructing new nodes has a major pivot towards using "NodeAssembler" pattern: https://github.com/ipld/go-ipld-prime/pull/49
- This was a massively breaking change: it pivoted from bottom-up composition to top-down assembly: allocating large chunks of structured memory up front and filling them in, rather than stitching together trees over fragmented heap memory with lots of pointers
- "NodeStyle" and "NodeBuilder" and "NodeAssembler" are all now separate concepts:
