Lamindb

You can now distinguish model-like and dataset-like artifacts via a `type` field in the `Artifact` registry.

Leverage `artifact.params.add_values()` to annotate model-like artifacts like you leverage `artifact.features.add_values()` to annotate dataset-like artifacts.

- 🏗️ Add `type` field to `Artifact`, allow linking model-like artifacts against params, validate params akin to validating features, enable features-based annotation with non-ulabels [PR](https://github.com/laminlabs/lamindb/pull/1690) [falexwolf](https://github.com/falexwolf)
- 🚸 Support dict in add_values [PR](https://github.com/laminlabs/lamindb/pull/1705) [Zethson](https://github.com/Zethson)

Annotating & querying by features improved:
- ✨ Support non-categorical feature values [PR](https://github.com/laminlabs/lamindb/pull/1674) [falexwolf](https://github.com/falexwolf)
- ✨ Annotate dict-style with features & values [PR](https://github.com/laminlabs/lamindb/pull/1674) [falexwolf](https://github.com/falexwolf)
- ✨ Query by features via `.features.filter(key=value)` [PR](https://github.com/laminlabs/lamindb/pull/1680) [falexwolf](https://github.com/falexwolf)
- 🏗️ Feature values decoupled from feature sets [PR](https://github.com/laminlabs/lamindb/pull/1674) [falexwolf](https://github.com/falexwolf)

Example:

python
annotate dict-style (feature & category names get validated)
artifact.features.add_values({
"species": "setosa",
"scientist": ["Barbara McClintock", "Edgar Anderson"],
"instrument": "Leica IIIc Camera",
"temperature": 27.6,
"study": "Study 0: initial plant gathering",
"is_awesome": True
})

get the dict back
artifact.features.get_values()

query by feature
ln.Artifact.features.filter(is_awesome=True)
