v0.14.0: Kotlin 2.0 and many stability improvements

[Jolanrensen]

This release can mostly be described as a quality-of-life release. While there are not many new groundbreaking features at the moment, almost every part of the library has had some improvement. See the full list of changes below, but to highlight a few:

• We now officially support Kotlin 2.0+. The library is built with 2.0.20 now, so it will work with KSP 2.0.20 too.
• We've continued our work on the DataFrame Kotlin Compiler Plugin. While it is still experimental, it introduces an exciting new approach to working with your data in a zero-boilerplate, type safe way leveraging the amazing power the Kotlin 2.0 compiler gives us. See this demo project to experiment with it yourself.
• See this notebook for some of the small yet exciting features of the 0.14 release!
