Version 3.4.0

🚀 charset-normalizer is raising awareness around HTTP/2, and HTTP/3!

Did you know that Internet Explorer 11 shipped with an optional HTTP/2 support back in 2013? also libcurl did ship it in 2014[...]
All of this while our community is still struggling to make a firm advancement in HTTP clients. Now, many of you use Requests
as the defacto http client, now, and for many years now, Requests has been frozen. Being left in a vegetative state and not evolving,
this blocked millions of developers from using more advanced features.

We promptly invite Python developers to look at the drop-in replacement for Requests, namely Niquests.
It leverage charset-normalizer in a better way! Check it out, you will be positively surprised! Don't wait another decade.

We are thankful to @microsoft and involved parties for funding our work through the Microsoft FOSS Fund program.
