v0.4.0

What's Changed

Enhancements:

• Added preliminary support for dask's new query planning (dask >= 2024.3.0) (#285).
• Added support for using dask-geopandas with distributed's P2P shuffle (this
  requires the latest distributed>=2024.6.0 to work) (#295).
• Added new from_wkb() and from_wkt() functions to convert a dask Series of
  WKB or WKT values into a dask-geopandas GeoSeries (#293).

Notes on dependencies:

• Removed support for PyGEOS, now requiring Shapely >= 2 (#280).
• Updated minimum supported versions of dependencies, now requiring Python 3.9,
  GeoPandas 0.12, numpy 1.23 and dask/distributed 2022.06.0.
