Breaking changes for v2.0

[cljoly]

A wishlist of breaking changes for the next major version:

• Change return types so that we can fix the cargo clippy pedantic warnings, like casting `i64` to `usize` may lose the sign of the value or casting `usize` to `u32` may truncate the value on targets with 64-bit wide pointers
• Introduce intermediary types so that we could write M::up(…).hook(…).down(…).hook(…)
• Remove deprecated items

Other things to decide on:

• Remove Eq implementation on M Comparison on migrations with hooks causes a stack overflow #45
• Remove PartialEq from our Error type?

I don’t know if a breaking version will ever be released though, there are costs to forcing users to migrate.

We can probably also remove PartialEq from our Error implementation.

Maybe also migrate to thiserror?

That’s a good point, I’ve added it to the checklist at the top.

Maybe also migrate to thiserror?

What prevents us from doing it? We could do it in a way that doesn’t break the API compatibility, couldn’t we?

I believe so, we can create a task for that if we deem it worthwhile.

I’ve created #95 for this.
