Companion to the feat(explorer) commit. Bumps the version and brings every cross-referencing doc up to v0.9 currency. - Cargo.toml: version 0.8.0 -> 0.9.0. - CHANGELOG: 0.9.0 entry covering the explorer export, the Problem-side metadata additions, the AlgorithmInfo trait, the pick_a_car example, and the new cookbook recipe. - README: closing paragraph of the PickACar example points users at the explorer with a one-call snippet (`ExplorerExport::from_result(...).with_algorithm_info(...) .to_file(...)?`). Version snippets bumped 0.8 -> 0.9. - New cookbook recipe at docs/book/src/cookbook/explorer.md covering: enabling the serde feature, enriching Problem with labels/units/decision-schema, the export call, the JSON schema, and custom decision-type handling. - SUMMARY.md and cookbook.md link the new recipe. - migration.md: new "To 0.9" section documenting the additive changes (purely backwards-compatible upgrade from 0.8.x). - introduction.md, comparison.md, choosing-an-algorithm.md, stability.md: version refs bumped 0.8 -> 0.9. - cookbook/parallel.md, cookbook/async.md: version refs bumped 0.8 -> 0.9. - getting-started.md: version refs bumped, serde feature description expanded to mention the explorer module. - SECURITY.md: supported-versions table moves to 0.9.x.
