v0.3.0

Sindbad v0.3.0

Diff since v0.2.1

Breaking changes

• Remove DataFormatBackend/BackendNetcdf/BackendZarr types and the NCDatasets dependency; netcdf/zarr loading is now consolidated through YAXArrays.open_dataset.
• Rename exported type InputYaxArray to InputYAXArray.
• Remove the deprecated use_forward_diff run flag.
• Move Plots to a weak dependency behind the new SindbadPlotsExt extension; using Plots is now required to activate plotting (plotTimeSeries/plotPerformanceHistograms keep back-compat aliases for the old names).

Other changes

• Add fire/disturbance modeling support (via SindbadTEM 0.1.3) and a new examples/setups/WROASTED example.
• Add checkIOModelStructure, which validates the I/O structure of the selected model pipeline (single-writer convention for non-pools/states/diagnostics outputs, valid-input-ordering convention) at experiment setup time, independent of the visualization backend.
• Add requires_package dispatch helper so optimizer/ML/pullback/visualization fallback errors name the exact extension package to load.
• Add convertParametersToNamedTuple for dot-access parameter lookup (flat or grouped by model/name).
• Add pluggable VisualizationTypes/VisualizationPlots backend dispatch, configurable via visualization_backend.
• Improve parameter-table access and lazy/xmap-based YAXArray loading for runTEMOnCube.
• Reorganize examples/ and tools/, and overhaul CI (on-demand full-matrix/simulation/docs checks with PR reporting).
• Widen compat: julia to include 1.12, DimensionalData to 0.30, Zarr to 0.10.
