Pratik Bhadane 307beeca02 release: cut v1.0.0
Prepare the first public 1.0.0 release and finish the remaining CI hardening work.

Highlights:
- align Python, Rust, WASM, Conda, API, MCP, and docs version metadata to 1.0.0
- promote package metadata to Production/Stable and update stability/versioning docs for the stable series
- move the accumulated Unreleased notes into a dated 1.0.0 changelog section and keep a fresh top-level Unreleased block
- strengthen the changelog checker so it validates a single top-level Unreleased section
- fix the CI/package support mismatch by declaring Python >=3.10 consistently and gating pandas-ta extras to Python 3.12+
- restore Sphinx autodoc compatibility for documented ferro_ta.<module> imports by registering module aliases
- make the TA-Lib benchmark guardrail less flaky by checking median and tail-percentile speedups instead of failing on a single mild outlier
- switch PyPI publishing to OIDC-only trusted publishing and wire the changelog check into the required CI gate
- apply the Ruff-driven cleanup across the Python and test tree and refresh uv/cargo lockfiles

Validated locally:
- python3 scripts/check_changelog.py
- uv run --with ruff ruff check python tests
- uv run --with ruff ruff format --check python tests
- uv lock --check
- sphinx-build -b html docs docs/_build -W --keep-going
- build/install the ferro_ta 1.0.0 wheel successfully

"""
Comparison tests: ferro_ta vs TA-Lib (ta-lib Python wrapper).
This module verifies that ferro_ta is a drop-in replacement for TA-Lib by
comparing the outputs of every shared indicator for:
* **Shape compatibility** — same output length and NaN count (or ±1 where a
documented off-by-one exists).
* **Value accuracy** — exact match within floating-point tolerance where the
algorithms are identical; range / convergence checks where initialization
differs.
Known differences are documented next to each test so consumers know what
to expect when migrating from TA-Lib.
Requirements
------------
Install ta-lib before running these tests::
pip install ta-lib
The tests are automatically skipped when ta-lib is not installed, so the
main CI pipeline never fails because of a missing optional dependency.
