dataclasses (Python 3.6 Backport)

The `dataclasses` library is a backport of the standard library `dataclasses` module, designed specifically for Python 3.6. It provides the `@dataclass` decorator and related utilities, enabling simpler creation of data-holding classes without boilerplate. Its current version is 0.8. As it targets a specific, older Python version, its release cadence is stable and infrequent, with no new feature development anticipated.
