Version 1.0

[janTOffermann]

This represents the first big release of HEPData4ML (after Version 0.9 which mainly served to "checkpoint" the code since some datasets on Zenodo had been produced with it)!

As touched upon in the notes in #23 , the code has gone quite an overhaul since the last release -- namely shifting from a tool whereby a user could produce a Monte Carlo simulated dataset of single jets, to full events. With the ability to produce datasets with multiple jets per event -- and even multiple jet collections -- this simple shift (combined with a few other bells and whistles) hopefully expands the usefulness of this package a fair bit.

Given that this refactoring has been a one-person project (and done here and there between other things), I'm sure there are still more things to do (and certainly more things to clean up; I think the repo may still be littered with some unused leftovers of the old code). This will probably necessitate another release in the (near?) future, but I think it makes sense to no longer delay this version as things should be pretty much ready-to-go.

For new users, a good place to start is in the tutorials subdirectory, which includes some scripts to give you a head start on producing Monte Carlo samples; it's pretty barebones at the moment and might not actually explain a whole lot, but the configuration files in there are quite annotated so hopefully this "learning by example" will answer some basic questions on how to actually use the software.
