There was a problem hiding this comment.
this is slightly API-breaking
but realistically, the previous behavior was unspecified behavior (relying on deleting a Series, while its dependent object are still hanging around)

Signed-off-by: dependabot[bot] <support@github.com> * Fix deprecated use in InvalidatableFile.hpp * CI: Build Windows wheels with CMake 4.x (VS 2026) The "MSVC w/o MPI via pip" job failed on the windows-latest runner after it upgraded to Visual Studio 2026 (VS 18): Generator NMake Makefiles does not support platform specification, but platform x64 was specified. CMAKE_C_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage `pip wheel` builds in an isolated environment that installs CMake per pyproject.toml's build requirement. The `<4.0.0` cap pinned that CMake to 3.x, which predates the "Visual Studio 18 2026" generator (added in CMake 4.2), so CMake fell back to "NMake Makefiles" and rejected setup.py's `-A x64`. Drop the CMake upper bound so the isolated build uses a current CMake that auto-detects the VS 2026 generator, matching the runner's own CMake that the non-pip MSVC job already builds with. Also bump the job to Python 3.11.
