publishing issue

• pyrfc-3.3-cp312-cp312-macosx_14_0_arm64.whl is uploaded to PyPI one day later, because of unsupported platform tag macosx_14_0_arm64. Fixed by https://github.com/pypi/warehouse/issues/14700

new features

• Options added for client and server instance, to disable strict date and time check by PyRFC, before writing to data container. Options check_date and check_time are True by default, thus the strict checking is by default enabled, because of backwards compatibility. With these option(s) deactivated, Python server will accept any date and/or time string sent by ABAP system, even when out of standard range, like 240000. See issue #336 for more details and PyRFC documentation.

• Server instance configuration exposed asoption read-only property
