v4.0 release (tracking task)

[ajfriend]

We'd like to get some v4.0 release out ASAP. I'm planning on using this task to track what we'd like to include, and what we'd kick to a v4.x (x > 0) release.

None of what's below is set in stone. We can use this issue for discussion of how we want to sequence these things.

v4.0: minimal requirements

Phase 1

• move to v4 H3 C library
  • [x] introduce h3fake2 as a transitional library (#238)
  • [x] #245
    • #241
    • #240
    • #251
    • #248
    • #252
  • [x] #246

Phase 2

• updated Python API function names
• #243
• updated documentation
• #242
• [ ] #247

v4.1-ish

• updated C and Cython API (we'll release updates in v4.0, but they won't be officially supported until a later release)
  • #236
• numpy/vectorized functions
• type hints
• #249

@ajfriend I haven't seen any recent updates. Are you still working on a V4 release or did you put this project on hold?
