Full Changelog: v8.0...v9.0.0

Breaking Changes

The "standard" use of the library remains fairly intact.

The obsolete GetBySpec repository methods are removed.
The IEntity interface is removed.
The Select/SelectMany are applied at the end of the chain or in a separate Query clause. These extension methods return void and no further chaining is possible.

In this version, we refactored the internals and the building blocks significantly. The "advanced" use cases are affected by these changes. Users who have custom extensions or have been relying on the internals need to migrate accordingly.

The expression collections no longer are initialized to a new List<T> by default and will return Enumerable.Empty<T> if empty.
The default value for Take and Skip properties no longer is null. They're updated to a non-nullable int type with a default value of -1.
The specification constructors no longer accept IInMemorySpecificationEvaluator and ISpecificationValidator parameters. The properties are still defined as virtual and can be overridden.
The builder infrastructure is refactored to accommodate better flow for specs with projections. All extensions should be written for both ISpecificationBuilder<T> and ISpecificationBuilder<T, TResult> builders.
The OrderedSpecificationBuilder and CacheSpecificationBuilder are removed.
The in-memory SearchEvaluator is renamed to SearchMemoryEvaluator.
The IncludeEvaluator.Default and IncludeEvaluator.Cached singleton instances are removed. Instead, use the IncludeEvaluator.Instance.
The SpecificationEvaluator no longer accepts bool cacheEnabled parameter. The caching is applied by default wherever necessary.
The EntityType, PropertyType, and PreviousPropertyType are removed from IncludeExpressionInfo.
The Update and Delete repository methods return Task<int> (the affected rows).
