Bug Fixes and Other Changes

• LatestBlessedModelStrategy gracefully handles the case where there are no
  blessed model at all (e.g. first run).
• Fix that the resolver with custom ResolverStrategy (assume correctly
  packaged) fails.
• Fixed ElwcBigQueryExampleGen data serializiation error that was causing an
  assertion failure on Beam.
• Added dark mode styling support for InteractiveContext notebook formatters.
• (Python 3.9+) Supports list and dict in type definition of execution
  properties.
• Populate Artifact proto name field when name is set on the Artifact python
  object.
• Temporarily capped apache-airflow version to 2.2.x to avoid dependency
  conflict. We will rollback this change once kfp releases a new version.
• Fixed a compatibility issue with apache-airflow 2.3.0 that is failing with
  "unexpected keyword argument 'default_args'".
• StatisticsGen will raise an error if unsupported StatsOptions (i.e.,
  generators or experimental_slice_functions) are passed.
