v2 release

Release breaks backward compatibility by adding a mandatory Misc column to the reports no matter the verbosity level. See Changed sections for more details.

Changed

• Misc column no longer depends on the verbosity level and is always shown. For stdout reports (default format) visibility of the
  column can be suppresed via custom formatter (e.g. %s %s %s to show only first three columns)
• Default formatter option spans 4 columns (Dependency, License name, License type, Misc) and equals to %-35s %-55s %-20s %-40s.
• totals report formatting assumes that the first two columns delimited with the same separator; the first separator is used (by default a single space)

Added

• Report output input field report-format to support stdout (default tabular report printed to the standard output), json, json-pretty and csv formats

Fixed

• Address the bug with supporting BigInteger in epoch, major, minor, and patch parts of the Python-native package versions

v1 release

No breaking changes are expected. Major version increase is mostly to get out of the 0-based Versioning vicious
circle. It's also to state the fact that the action has reached certain level of maturity and used by many repos.

See changelog for:

• v1.0.0-rc1
• v1.0.0-rc2

Bugfix to check pre-release versions in case of == and === specifiers for Python native packages

Changed

• Used pip-license-checker version 0.44.0: no breaking changes, bugfixes only

Release candidate: complete code rewrite from bash to babashka

No breaking changes are expected, but thourough testing is needed!

Please report problems to the discussion thread

Verbosity levels support & bugfixes for native Python packages

Changed

• Used pip-license-checker version 0.43.0
• Input field with-totals deprecated, use totals instead.
• Input field table-headers deprecated, use headers instead.

Added

• Input field verbose supports integer values: 0 (non-verbose), 1 (errors), 2 (errors, info), 3 (errors, info, debug) that
  correspond to a upstream's pip-license-checker cumulative -v option.

Fixed

• Yanked versions of native Python packages are now checked in case of exact version matching or arbitrary equality #125
• Bug with pre-release versions resolution for native Python packages fixed #126

Deprecate `with-totals` and `table-headers` inputs

Changed
