👀 What Changed

This release switches the project from setuptools to the modern scikit-build-core. This brings a way better development experience with faster editable rebuilds, no more setup.py and MANIFEST.in files, and more. See #301 for some more details.

It also switches the CI to the reusable workflows introduced in MQT Core, which is (more-and-more) truly becoming the backbone of the MQT. Build caching is now enabled for all CI workflows, change detection only runs those flows that are required for the given changes, PyPI publishing uses trusted publishing now, and many more. Also see #301 for more details.

This small release improves/fixes the internal equivalence checking flow logic for inferring a final result from the results of all individual checkers (fixes #240).
It also features more useful logging messages in some corner cases and issues a warning if the compilation flow verification scheme is used, but the circuits under consideration contain no measurements.

What's Changed

• 🚸 Warning for missing measurements by @burgholzer in https://github.com/cda-tum/qcec/pull/239
• 💡♻️ Improve corner-case logic for infering check result by @burgholzer in https://github.com/cda-tum/qcec/pull/241

This release brings some quality of life improvements to the internals of the QCEC library.
First of all, it updates the core/intermediate-representation library (QFR) to its latest version, which is now much more independent from the underlying DD package thanks to cda-tum/qfr#244. The core library itself has seen quite some internal updates and code quality fixes.
Secondly, this PR adds better templating to the DD-related functions that allows for better IDE/autocompletion support.
Last but not least, it updates the CMake structure of the project based on cda-tum/dd_package/pull/125 as well as cda-tum/qfr/pull/246 to include more warnings, a simpler structure, unified compilation options and much more.
