The 0.11.0 upload failed only after the release was tagged and
published, which burned the version number due to immutable releases
(see python-kasa#1779).

- Add a local `build-packages` action that builds the packages with the
release build constraints and runs `twine check --strict` on them.
- Run it in the lint job, so packaging issues are caught on every PR.
- Use the same action in the publish workflow.

Use get() instead of index accessor to avoid crashing on unknown devices.

Fixture for a Tapo P116M (India), hardware 1.0, firmware 1.4.4.
It has the same energy monitoring components as the P110M.

Adds a device fixture for the **Tapo TD21** doorbell, hardware 2.0 (EU),
firmware 1.1.5 Build 260423 Rel.6435n.

The fixture's `discovery_result` block is **hand-written**, not
captured.

Use the real discovery reply in the TD21 fixture. I said there that the TD21 doesn't answer UDP
discovery, and that was wrong: it was asleep during my first attempt,
and I had skipped discovery in `dump_devinfo` by passing the family
flags. The doorbell does answer, from port 20004.

This commit uses the real device response for the fixture, so the `_comment` marker is removed since
nothing in the fixture is hand-made any more.

- Add `kasa/transports/sslcontext.py` with one shared SSL context for
the https transports to avoid copies across transports.
- Use it in `SslTransport`, and convert KLAP and Linkie also to use it.
- Extend Python's default ciphers with the legacy suites instead of
replacing accepted ciphers for future compatibility.

…#1802)

Smartcam devices do not support sending individual requests, but respond always with `PROTOCOL_FORMAT_ERROR
(-40210)`.

This commit forces them to always use the multi-request format for requests even after receiving an error where we would otherwise fallback to individual requests.

python-kasa#1808)

Some legacy iot firmware stops responding when an unsupported module follows `system` in a request, which made every update time out once the HomeKit query was added.

This stops querying HomeKit in `update()` for IOT devices and adds `Device.supports_module()` API to allow checking if some module is supported by the device.

…n-kasa#1809)

Replaces `github_changelog_generator` and the manual release steps with a script and a workflow.

Without `rich` installed, `kasa` prints tags like `[bold red]Only
discover is available without --host or --alias[/bold red]` verbatim.
The fallback in `kasa/cli/common.py` strips only single-word tags
(`\[/?[a-z]+]`), and `error()` uses the two-word `[bold red]`.

The pattern is changed to `\[/?[a-z]+(?: [a-z]+)*]`, so space-separated lowercase words are stripped too.

…sa#1797)

Fixes python-kasa#1796

Some hubs intermittently return a `getChildDeviceComponentList` result
without the `child_component_list` key, as seen with an H200 (firmware 1.7.7 Build 20260917).

This changes the logic, so that when the list is missing, children are neither created nor deleted for
that update, and a debug message is logged. Treating the response as an
empty list would delete the known children of a hub that has some, so
they are kept until the next complete response.

## [0.12.0](https://github.com/python-kasa/python-kasa/tree/0.12.0)
(2026-10-25)

This release include several compatibility fixes (updated accepted SSL
ciphers, removal of Homekit from the default update cycle).
The new API `Device.supports_module()` provide a way to find out if the
device supports some specific module, e.g., HomeKit, without including
it in the default update cycle.
