What's Changed

• Add Ulid.Empty field representing an empty ULID to PACKAGE.md by @Seramis in #14
• Stricter AoT compatibility checks. Codestyle improvements. by @Seramis in #15
• Enhanced ULID Generation with GenerationOptions and Improved Randomness by @Seramis in #17

Deprecation Notice

This release introduces a new, more flexible way to control ULID generation options via the GenerationOptions class. Consequently, the following older API elements are now deprecated:

• Ulid.DefaultIsMonotonic: This static boolean property is replaced by Ulid.DefaultGenerationOptions, which provides comprehensive configuration.
• Ulid.New(..., bool? isMonotonic) methods: All Ulid.New overloads that accepted a bool? isMonotonic parameter are superseded by Ulid.New(..., GenerationOptions? options) methods.

The deprecated methods and properties are now marked with the [Obsolete] attribute. While they remain functional in this release, they will be removed in a future version. We encourage users to transition to the new GenerationOptions class for all ULID generation configurations to ensure future compatibility and leverage advanced features.
