This is a significant upgrade across multiple major versions that includes several documented breaking changes and drops support for older Python versions.

Key Breaking Changes:

• API Deviations: Version 0.3.1 refactored the NamedValues implementation to behave more like a Python dictionary, with the changelog explicitly stating: "WARNING: this change introduces a deviation from original API".
• Behavioral Changes: Starting in version 0.4.6, the behavior of SequenceOf and SetOf objects was changed to be more consistent with Python lists. The release notes mention this may cause "potential backward compatibility issues".
• Attribute Deprecation: In version 0.4.7, the sizeSpec attribute was deprecated in favor of subtypeSpec.
• Python Version Support: Support for Python versions older than 3.8 has been dropped in the newer releases.

Recommendation: Due to the explicit warnings of API deviations and backward compatibility issues, this upgrade requires careful testing. Code interacting with NamedValues, SequenceOf, or SetOf objects is particularly at risk and will likely need refactoring.
