Update template to v0.8.0

[scverse-bot]

cookiecutter-scverse released v0.8.0.

Changes

This release comes with a bunch of smaller fixes and changes to the template, and a lot of under-the-hood changes reducing friction with template sync and initialization.

Changes

The most notable change is the introduction of zizmor as pre-commit hook for hardening github actions against supply-chain attacks. Github actions will be pinned to an immutable hash instead of a version number. Dependabot will take care of updating them (by @ilan-gold, @grst, @ilia-kats in scverse/cookiecutter-scverse#498).

Additionally, we introduced a helper package, scverse-misc, that contains utility code shared across scverse core and ecosystem packages. As an initial step, we moved custom sphinx extensions that were previously part of the template into scverse-misc (by @ilia-kats in scverse/cookiecutter-scverse#529). Rollout of additional features (shared logging and settings) will follow in the next release.

The remaining changes are listed below:

Additional remarks

• unsubscribe: If you don’t want to receive these PRs in the future,
  add skip: true to template-repos.yml using a PR or,
  if you never want to sync from the template again, delete the .cruft.json file in the root of your repository.
• If there are merge conflicts, you need to resolve them manually.
• The scverse template works best when the pre-commit.ci, readthedocs and codecov services are enabled.
  Make sure to activate those apps if you haven't already.
