v2.10.0

Cats v2.10.0 is a binary-compatible release in the 2.x series. It is published for Scala 2.12, 2.13, and 3.3+ with Scala.js 1.13+ and Scala Native 0.4.

This release includes #4477 which fixes the encoding of Apply (and Semigroupal) syntax to avoid allocating an intermediate "Ops" wrapper class. This affected commonly-used operators such as *>. Unfortunately libraries will need to re-compile and re-publish against Cats v2.10.0 to use the new allocation-free syntax.

Thanks to all the contributors to this release! There are many accumulated changes.
