* Expected `bool` value will be guaranteed to be a boolean using standard [truth testing procedure](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#truth-value-testing) for the input value
* Expected `NoneType` will be guaranteed to be `None` regardless of the input value
* Introduced JSON Schema plugin system (265), see updated [documentation](https://github.com/Fatal1ty/mashumaro?tab=readme-ov-file#json-schema-plugins)
* Added built-in `DocstringDescriptionPlugin` to use a docstring as a description (222)
