The boost subset used to live as a .tar.xz inside this repo under
dev/docker/boost_bcp_docker/, extracted at configure time into
boost_CoolProp/. That setup is replaced by a CPM fetch of
CoolProp/boost-headers, pinned to a commit SHA like every other
dependency in cmake/dependencies.cmake.
Drops ~22 MB of in-tree headers + a 548 KB .tar.xz, and removes the
fatal-error configure path that required the tarball to exist.
The new subset also includes boost::numeric::odeint (and pulls the
typeof sublibrary explicitly so bcp's static dep scan doesn't miss
macro-registered headers -- see CoolProp/boost-headers c681046).
Closes#2774

* build: replace git submodules with CPM.cmake
All 11 submodules (Eigen, fmtlib, msgpack-c, rapidjson, IF97,
REFPROP-headers, multicomplex, Catch2, pybind11, ExcelAddinInstaller,
FindMathematica) are now fetched by CPM.cmake at configure time.
Set CPM_SOURCE_CACHE (e.g. ~/.cache/CPM) to share the download cache
across git worktrees and build directories — no more per-worktree
`git submodule update --init --recursive`.
Vendored deps that have no upstream release cycle (miniz, nlohmann-json,
incbin) remain in externals/ as before.
Source-level changes: angle-bracket includes for rapidjson, IF97, and
REFPROP-headers now that their directories are on the include path via
CPM-provided source dirs rather than relative paths from the repo root.

* fix(python): wire up CPM.cmake in Python wrapper, fix include paths
The Python wrapper CMakeLists.txt was still referencing submodule paths
(externals/Eigen, externals/fmtlib, externals/msgpack-c) removed by the
CPM migration. Include CPM.cmake + dependencies.cmake from the root and
use the ${Pkg_SOURCE_DIR} variables instead. Also adds missing
rapidjson, IF97, and REFPROP_headers include dirs required by CoolProp
sources.
CI workflows drop the now-meaningless `submodules: recursive` checkout
option and add a CPM source-cache step to avoid re-downloading on each
macOS/Windows runner.

* docs: remove git submodule references after CPM.cmake migration
Dependencies are now managed by CPM.cmake (fetched automatically at
CMake configure time), so git submodules no longer exist.
- Drop `--recursive` from all `git clone` commands in Web docs and
wrapper READMEs (26 .rst/.md files)
- Remove `submodules: recursive` from all CI workflow checkout steps
(13 workflow files)
- Remove `git submodule foreach/update` calls from release.bsh and
delete the now-dead pybind11 security-workaround lines
- Drop `--recursive` from build_swigged_matlab.sh and gitMirror.bsh
- Update CONTRIBUTING.md: drop "and its submodules" phrasing
Changelog entries referencing old submodule PRs are left intact as
historical records. The --recursive in buildbot.rst is for the
Dockerfiles repo (unrelated) and is also left unchanged.

* fix(ci): remove empty 'with:' blocks after submodule removal, apply clang-format
After removing 'submodules: recursive' from checkout steps, some workflow
files were left with dangling empty 'with:' blocks that GitHub Actions
rejects as workflow file errors. Remove the empty 'with:' in 9 workflows.
Also apply clang-format to fix spacing in REFPROPMixtureBackend.cpp,
HumidAirProp.cpp, and Helmholtz.cpp.

* chore(deps): update miniz from 3.0.2 to 3.1.1
Adds the miniz-3.1.1 source directory and updates all CMakeLists.txt
references. Notable fixes in 3.1.0/3.1.1: integer promotion warnings,
tinfl_decompress bug that broke mem-to-heap decompression, MinGW Unicode
path support, and inline static wrappers to silence warnings.

* Use ninja for the examples
Should help a little bit with doc building
* FIx some templates
* Fix template deduction error in count_x_for_y_many functions
The count_x_for_y_many and count_x_for_y_manyC functions were using
a single template parameter for both input (double) and output (size_t)
arrays, causing template deduction failures in Cython bindings.
Changed to use separate template parameters YContainer and CountContainer
to properly support different types for input y values and output counts.

* Fix wheel building by removing return from void Cython template calls
The functions solve_for_x_manyC and count_x_for_y_manyC return void in C++.
When Cython sees a return statement with a void function call containing
template arguments with commas (e.g., [double, size_t]), it wraps the call
in the __Pyx_void_to_None macro. This macro is a simple preprocessor macro
that cannot handle the commas in template arguments, treating them as macro
argument separators instead.
The fix is to remove the return statements, making these simple void function
calls. This prevents the __Pyx_void_to_None wrapping and allows the wheel to
build successfully.

* Fix header gen on windows
* Add missing dependencies for constants generation
The generate_constants_target was defined but nothing depended on it,
so CMake never invoked the constants generation script on Windows.
Changes:
- CoolProp_module now depends on generate_constants_target (not just
generate_headers_target)
- CoolProp.pyx Cythonization now depends on constants_header.pxd and
generate_constants_target (since CoolProp.pyx imports constants_header)
This ensures the constants generation script runs before building,
creating the required files:
- constants_header.pxd
- _constants.pyx
- constants.py

* Modernize Python build system to use scikit-build-core
This commit replaces the old setuptools-based build system with a modern
scikit-build-core + CMake build system for the Python bindings.
Key changes:
- Replace setup.py with pyproject.toml using scikit-build-core backend
- Create new CMakeLists.txt for Cython module compilation
- Add FindCython.cmake helper module
- Update README from .rst to .md format
- Enable incremental builds with proper CMake dependency tracking
- Support Python 3.8-3.14 with proper Cython directives
Benefits:
- Incremental builds work correctly (only rebuild changed files)
- Modern PEP 517/518 compliant build system
- Build artifacts cached in build/{wheel_tag} directories
- Better integration with pip and modern Python tooling
- No more need for custom _py_backend build hooks

Also updates .gitignore to ignore:
- wrappers/Python/CoolProp/include/ (generated during build)
- wrappers/Python/CoolProp/CoolPropBibTeXLibrary.bib (copied during build)
Includes test script to verify wheel contents match between old and new build approaches.

unnecessary.
