v2.0.0

This release primarily updates core myst-parser dependencies,
with some minor changes to parsing behaviour:

• ⬆️ UPGRADE: markdown-it-py to v3 (#773)

  • This is mainly a non-breaking change, fixing some edge cases in parsing
  • See: https://github.com/executablebooks/markdown-it-py/releases/tag/v3.0.0
    and https://github.com/executablebooks/mdit-py-plugins/releases/tag/v0.4.0

• ⬆️ UPGRADE: linkify-it-py to v2 (https://github.com/executablebooks/MyST-Parser/675)

  • Also fixes some edge cases in parsing
  • See: https://github.com/tsutsu3/linkify-it-py/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md

• ⬆️ UPGRADE: Add support for docutils v0.20 (https://github.com/executablebooks/MyST-Parser/775)

  • No significant changes, see https://docutils.sourceforge.io/RELEASE-NOTES.html#release-0-20-2023-05-04

• ⬆️ UPGRADE: Add support for sphinx v7, and remove v5 support (https://github.com/executablebooks/MyST-Parser/776)

  • No significant changes, see https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/changes.html

• ⬆️ UPGRADE: Remove Python 3.7 support and add testing for Python 3.11 (https://github.com/executablebooks/MyST-Parser/772)

• 👌 Improve default slug generation for heading anchors, thanks to @Cimbali (https://github.com/executablebooks/MyST-Parser/777)

  • This change makes the slug generation closer to GitHub, in that, starting/ending whitespace will not be stripped.
    For example, # ` a` b `c ` will now correctly create the slug -a-b-c- and not a-b-c

• 👌 IMPROVE: Substitution extension (https://github.com/executablebooks/MyST-Parser/777)

  • Allow any value type (including dict, list, datetime) and emit a myst.substitution warning for errors in resolving the substitution content.

• 🧪 Introduce a gate/check GHA job, thanks to @webknjaz (https://github.com/executablebooks/MyST-Parser/635)
