Updates
* 🇪🇸 New Spanish datasets thanks to violenil & team 🚀
* 🇫🇷 New French datasets thanks to GabrielSequeira & team + there's a [new French Overall leaderboard tab](https://huggingface.co/spaces/mteb/leaderboard) thanks to their massive benchmarking 🥇
* Retrieval has become much simpler and is now standardized to align with other tasks. You can [inspect all Retrieval datasets on the hub](https://huggingface.co/mteb), it is much easier to add new Retrieval datasets now & there are fewer dependencies making installing MTEB easier 😊 While this change is backward-compatible, it represents a significant change in how MTEB works, thus we decided to increment the minor for this release (1.1.2 -> 1.2.0).
