MQT Core 2.5.1 Release

👀 What Changed

This small update brings along support for the new Neutral Atom Hybrid Mapper over in the QMAP repository as well as some quality of life improvements across the package.
On the Python package part of the codebase, the resulting wheels are considerably smaller now, as they just contain the Python component of mqt-core.
On the DD part of the codebase, the trace computation finally received a compute table, which significantly speeds it up.
On the CI/CD side, this marks the first release that makes use of the reusable workflows hosted over at https://github.com/cda-tum/mqt-workflows.
