Rustpy-xlsxwriter

Added

- Added the optional crate feature `rust_decimal` to allow writing the
[`Decimal`] type in [`Worksheet::write()`] via [`rust_decimal`]. This requires
that the `Decimal` can be represented as a `f64` in Excel.

[Request 127]

- Added the [`Worksheet::autofit_to_max_width()`] method to enable autofitting
long strings with an upper limit for readability.

- Updated `polars` dependency to 0.45 to pick up latest Polars additions for
[`polars_excel_writer`].

- Added some code changes to prepare for Rust edition 2024.

Fixed

- Fixed issue where unnecessary heap memory was being used to zip worksheets in
`constant_memory` mode. This version is a recommended upgrade for anyone using
that mode/feature.

Added

- Added the [`utility::cell_autofit_width()`] function to allow users to
calculate a string auto-fit width so that they can implement their own
auto-fit functionality with additional logic.

[`utility::cell_autofit_width()`]:
https://docs.rs/rust_xlsxwriter/latest/rust_xlsxwriter/utility/fn.cell_autofit_width.html

- Updated `polars` dependency to 0.44 to pick up latest Polars additions for
[`polars_excel_writer`].

Fixed

- Fixed issue when handling PNG images with 0 DPI but with DPI units set.

Added

- Made the `FilterData::new_string_and_criteria()` and
`FilterData::new_number_and_criteria()` functions public to allows users to
implement the [`IntoFilterData`] trait.

[Request 115]: https://github.com/jmcnamara/rust_xlsxwriter/issues/115


Fixed

- Fixed maximum cell width when autofitting columns. The maximum width is now
constrained to the Excel limit of 255 characters/1790 pixels.

[Issue 114]

[Issue 114]: https://github.com/jmcnamara/rust_xlsxwriter/issues/114

Added

- Added support for adding multiple objects (charts, images, shapes and buttons)
of the same type in the same cell, but with unique offset values. This allows
the user to position multiple objects using the same cell reference and
different offset values when using functions like
[`Worksheet::insert_chart_with_offset()`].

[`Worksheet::insert_chart_with_offset()`]: https://docs.rs/rust_xlsxwriter/latest/rust_xlsxwriter/worksheet/struct.Worksheet.html#method.insert_chart_with_offset

Fixed

- Fixed issue where the precedence order of conditional formats wasn't being
preserved and the rules were being sorted into row/column order instead of
insertion order. This issue would only be visible with nested conditional
formats and shouldn't affect most users.
