• Implement POW operator in the QueryBuilder (#3045)

🐛 Fixes

• Bug: add_to_snapshot does not work with negative version (#3056)
• Processing pipeline perf improvements (#3086)
• Be consistent with NaN when filtering on NaT values (#3085)
• Reject adding deleted versions to snapshot (#3113)
• Performance 11460919917: defrag profiling and optimisation (#3080)
• Documentation 12040485547: Add demo notebook for compact_data and compact_data_explain_plan (#3129)

⚠️ Technical API Break ⚠️

#3085 Changes the way query builder handles NaT in filtering. From now on it will use NaN-like semantics - NaT OP ANYTHING is false for any OP other than !=, for which NaT != ANYTHING is true. For code samples and detailed info see #3085's PR description.
