Added qelectron tests to the tests workflow
Split the nightly workflow into 4 manually triggerable workflows, nightly-tests, man_0_assign_version, man_1_push_to_master, and man_2_create_prerelease to be run in this order.
Now only the nightly-tests workflow will be run on a daily basis, and the other 3 workflows will be run manually.
Removed conda releases from release.yml.
When pushing to master, now the version numbers of develop and master will be compared in man_1_push_to_master.
Upgraded checkout action to v4 in release.yml.
Fixing the if condition for the manual workflows.
Added pre-release creation as part of nightly-tests workflow.

Added CRM method to handle Python to TF value conversion (e.g. None->null, True->true, False->false).
Added pennylane as a requirement in tests due to the tutorials using it

Updated RTD notebooks to fix their behavior
Changed the error being shown when drawing the transport graph of a lattice to a debug message instead
Revamped README
Reorganized qelectron tests
Made qelectron an opt-in feature using covalent[quantum] extra

Removed unused file transfer how to guides
Removed pennylane as a requirement from notebooks' requirements.txt as it comes with covalent
Removed validate_args and validate_region method from deploy_group CLI as they were specific to AWS

Fixed the scenario where any deploy commands would fail if the user had a non deploy compatible plugin installed
Fixed the SQLAlchemy warning that used to show up at every fresh server start
Fixed deploy commands' default value of plugins not being propagated to the tfvars file

Added feature to use custom python files as modules to be used in the electron function

SDK no longer uploads empty assets when submitting a dispatch.
Results Manager avoids downloading assets with size 0.
Local and Dask executor plugins now return accurate sizes of task
artifacts.
Size (number of bytes) is now a required attribute whenever updating
asset metadata. Although the exact numerical value is not yet
important, whether the size is reported to be zero or positive does
have consequences.
Pack deps, call_before, and call_after assets into one file.
Changed handling of tuples and sets when building the transport graph - they will be converted to electron lists as well for now
qelectron_db, qelectron_data_exists, python_version, and covalent_version
are now optional in the pydantic model definitions.
