Full Changelog: Release-1.0.0-beta...Release-1.1.0-beta

Release-1.0.0-beta

JNI Bind has been in production code at Google for a couple years now, and its API is largely settled. This seems a reasonable point to finally make a "beta" cut where devs can rely on a stable API.

In the future, JNI Bind will support C++20, enabling non-clang compilers. This will require a new syntax, but I aim to maintain cross compatability and backwards compatability. After this, I am going to repurpose the type system as a DSL generator, and will re-apply it to protobuffers.

Finally, this project began right before COVID, and much of it was written during lockdown. Thank you to the countless people who helped me bring this to the open source community, it has been a deeply challenging project, but ultimately I am very excited with the final product and use it daily. I hope you find it valuable, and would greatly appreciate any support you can offer with a GitHub ⭐️.

Good luck in your JNI Binding!

Release-0.9.8-alpha

**Warning: This is potentially breaking change if you use null values with LocalObject without AdoptLocal or you use JNI Bind on another thread without first taking a ThreadGuard (the previous behaviour would silently work if you did not use any objects).

See #207 for additional details.
