14.0.0

Breaking change

pychromecast has seen some major changes in this release, which unfortunately causes multiple breaking changes.

The most important breaking changes are:

• Most user facing functions accepting an optional callback function have been changed such that the optional arguments are now kwarg only (#779)
• The signature of callbacks called when requests are completed has been changed (#783)
• Some named tuples have been replaced with dataclasses (#787)
• The ServiceInfo class has been split in two classes (#790)
• Parameter names of MediaStatusListener.load_media_failed has been changed (#826)
• Many user facing functions now have a default timeout, and will raise when that timeout expires (#836)
• It's no longer supported to use pychromecast with event custom loops (#837)
