Prepare the upcoming release.

- The documentation is not completely reorganized yet
- The dependencies branch still needs some love to be merged

But we still plan for a 3.25 release this week-end, if luck permits.

 SimGrid (3.24.1) NOT RELEASED YET (v3.25 expected December 22. 2029, 04:19 UTC)
 
+Important user-visible changes:
+- Great improvement of the Python binding's stability.
+  - A nasty synchronization bug was ironed out, see also below.
+- Reorganization of the C & Python bindings' documentation.
+  - Python was organized as a separate tree, C was not part of the doc
+  - The C++ doc was also improved as methods are now split by theme.
+- SimDAG++: Automatic dependencies on S4U activities (experimental)
+  - Some features are already implemented but not all of them
+  - Cannot block an activity until it's scheduled on a resource
+  - Only Exec and Io so far. Comms are not handled yet.
+  - No heterogeneous wait_any() that would mix Exec and Io activities.
+  - See examples/s4u/{io-,exec-}dependent for what's already there.
