Highlights:

New features

• Support creating GDS Sessions for self-managed Neo4j DBMS.
  • GdsSessions.get_or_create requires a new parameter cloud_location to specify where the session will be created.
• Return the id of a session and allow deletion by id or name.
• Add ttl parameter to GdsSessions.get_or_create to control if and when an unused session will be automatically deleted.
• Add concurrency control for remote write-back procedures using the concurrency parameter.
• Add progress logging for remote write-back when using GDS Sessions.
• Added a flag to GraphDataScience and AuraGraphDataScience classes to disable displaying progress bars when running procedures.

Improvements
