Changes

Complex Cells (v0.4.0) - 2023-02-21

• CplxKCell:
  • Use DCplxPort by default. These ports can have arbitrary angle and are micrometer based Any other port will be silently converted to DCplxPort

• library -> klib: Rename kf.library -> kf.klib, kf.KCell.library -> kf.KCell.klib, kf.kcell.library -> kf.KCell.klib in order to not confuse with the KLayout library and shadow it.

  Put deprecation warning and remove in 0.5.0 * autocell * move cache from cachetools.Cache[int,Any] to a dictionary {} * deprecate cache maxsize for 0.5.0: this is not necessary as a dictionary has infinite size and cache eviction is unwanted
