py-xlsxwriter: updated to 3.2.2

Release 3.2.2 - January 28 2025

* Added support for checkboxes via the :func:`insert_checkbox()` method.

  Checkboxes are a new feature added to `Excel in 2024`_. They are a way of
  displaying a boolean value as a checkbox in a cell. The underlying value is
  still an Excel ``TRUE/FALSE`` boolean value and can be used in formulas and in
  references.

py-xlsxwriter: updated to 3.2.1

Release 3.2.1 - January 22 2025

Added improvements to ``autofit()``.

* Added the optional ``max_width`` parameter to the :func:`autofit()` method to
  work around the issue where the autofit width is too big.

  Excel autofits very long strings up to limit of 1790 pixels/255 characters.
  This is often too wide to display on a single screen at normal zoom. As such
  the ``max_width`` parameter is provided to enable a smaller upper pixel limit
  for autofitting long strings. See :func:`autofit()`.

* Added the :func:`cell_autofit_width` utility function to allow users to
  calculate the auto-fit width for a cell value. This allows the user to
  implement their own auto-fit logic. See :ref:`ex_autofit_manually`.

Release 3.2.0 - February 17 2024
--------------------------------

This is the 10th anniversary release of XlsxWriter. Version 0.0.1 was released

contributors, 1000 closed issues and 150 million yearly downloads. Thanks to
everyone who has contributed code, given feedback or just used the library.

* Add :func:`embed_image()` worksheet method to embed images in cells. This is
  equivalent to Excel's menu item to insert an image using the option to "Place
  in Cell". It scales images automatically to the dimensions of the cell.

  This has been a frequently requested feature for people creating spreadsheets
  with images for product items. See also :ref:`ex_embedded_images`.

  also set.

Release 3.1.7 - October 9 2023

* Add the :func:`very_hidden()` method to hide a worksheet. This is similar to

  the Excel user interface. The Excel worksheet "xlSheetVeryHidden" \ 
option can
  only be unset programmatically via VBA.

* Added fixes for column formulas in tables that were overridden by table data
  and which also didn't take future functions into account.
