Breaking in 4.0.0

• Public names are sportsdataverse-py's — athlete → player, event → game on every ESPN league; sdv-py's name_pattern on the native families (nhlApiWeb* → nhl*, nflApi* → nfl*, CBS's 16 shorts, the 3.0.0 file-stem names). Every pre-v4 name still works as a deprecated alias that warns once. (changelog)
• Integer id columns are decimal strings — Every id column of integers (id, *_id, game_pk, playerId, …) comes back as exact decimal strings on every surface — parsers, producers, loaders, HockeyTech analytics. Compare and join ids as strings; Number(row.game_id) for a safe number back. (changelog)
• 400 / 422 raise InvalidParameterError — For every family (it was AssetFetchError), never retried; the message names host, path and status with a redacted excerpt of the body. (changelog)
• Typed returns — generated row types for parsed: true — TypeScript only. A wrapper's raw payload resolves to unknown (was any); verified endpoints resolve to their row interfaces; the summary dispatchers to ParsedTables. Narrow or cast a raw payload. (changelog)
• Typed wrapper params and loader rows; strict mode — TypeScript only. A param the endpoint does not have, a missing required path param or a non-boolean bool param is a type error; parser rows are Record<string, unknown>; loader rows are their generated row types. (changelog)
• Wrapper failures raise NoDataError / AssetFetchError — Instead of raw axios errors. NoDataError = the fetch worked and there is nothing there (404, ESPN { code: 404 }); AssetFetchError = the fetch failed (403 / 429 / 5xx after retries, network). Retries follow DEFAULT_RETRY_STATUSES with backoff. (changelog)
