Prerelease for v0.6.0

This is the first release to use bridgestan to make it easy to sample Stan models.

In this release we switch the internal backend for storing traces from numpy to arrow (we still return an arviz InferenceData object in nutpie.sample). The trace and sample stats are now written in rust without needing to hold the GIL, so sampling multiple models in parallel is significantly faster.
