Version 1.11.0

Major Features and Improvements

This is the last version that supports TensorFlow 1.15.x. TF 1.15.x support will be removed in the next version. Please check the TF2 migration guide to migrate to TF2.
Artifact/Channel properties now support the new MLMD PROTO property type.
Supports environment variables in the placeholder expression. This placeholder can be used to generate beam_pipeline_args dynamically.

Moved tflite-support related dependencies from [examples] to a separate [tflite-support] extra.
Moved flax related dependencies from [examples] to a separate [flax] extra.
Statistics gen and Schema gen now crash on empty input examples and statistics respectively.
Importer will now check that an existing artifact has the same type as the intended output before reusing the existing artifact.
Importer will now use the most recently created artifact when reusing an existing artifact instead of the one with the highest ID.
Proto placeholder now works with proto files that have non-trivial transitive dependencies.
