Localize Units SQL v2.1.0

This is the changelog for Localize Units SQL v2.1.0 released on October 25th, 2026.

Requires localize ~> 1.4. Version 2.0.0 required localize ~> 0.22, which no Localize 1.x release satisfies, so it could not be installed alongside Localize 1.0 or later.
cast/1 of every type returns a cast error for a string value with trailing text, such as "12abc", where it raised WithClauseError.
Localize.Unit.DDL.drop_aggregate_functions/1 drops unit_with_usage_state_function, which it named wrongly and so left behind. A migration generated by 2.0.0 keeps the old down, so rolling back the type migration fails: change unit_state_function(agg_state cldr_unit_with_usage, ...) in that down to unit_with_usage_state_function(...).
equal?/2 of every type compares the unit name and the exact value, and the with-usage types also compare the usage, so Ecto now writes a change of unit or usage. It used to compare quantities across units as floats and ignore usage, so such a change was silently dropped.
cast/1 of every type casts a float value, where it raised FunctionClauseError. The with-usage types cast a string-keyed map that has no "usage".
load/1 of every type returns :error for a value of the wrong shape, where it raised. The map types load a float value.

This is the changelog for Localize Units SQL v2.0.0 released on April 24th, 2026.

The package has been renamed from ex_cldr_units_sql to localize_units_sql. The Cldr.Unit.* modules are now Localize.Unit.* (for example Cldr.Unit.Ecto.Composite.Type becomes Localize.Unit.Ecto.Composite.Type). Existing schema and migration references must be updated.
Supported on Elixir 1.17 or later only.
Requires the unified localize package in place of the ex_cldr family of dependencies. The CLDR backend module (e.g. MyApp.Cldr) and its configuration are no longer used. Configure locales through config :localize instead.
Localize.Unit uses string unit identifiers (for example "meter") and string usage values (for example "person"), rather than atoms. Code that previously passed :meter or usage: :person should pass "meter" / usage: "person".
Localize.Unit.new/2,3 takes the value as the first argument and the unit identifier as the second. The Cldr.Unit.new(:meter, 100) form is no longer valid — use Localize.Unit.new(100, "meter").
The :unit field on the struct has been renamed to :name.
jason is no longer a declared dependency. Postgrex defaults to Jason for json/jsonb columns; configure config :postgrex, :json_library, JSON (Elixir 1.18+) and run mix deps.compile postgrex --force once since Postgrex captures this setting at compile time.

The Postgres composite type names (cldr_unit, cldr_unit_with_usage) and aggregate function names are unchanged, so existing databases do not require a schema migration.
