Version 0.10.1 release plans #1020

This issue is intended to track changes that will be part of the version 0.10.1 release of python-control. There are a number of changes that will be part of this:

• NumPy 2.0 compatibility
• Bug fixes for v0.10.0 (and earlier releases)
• Updates to various plotting routines, to provide a more consistent interface to the response/plot pattern implemented in version 0.10.
  • Fix nyquist plotting from FrequencyResponseData #996
  • Add extra information to nyquist plots #997
  • Frequency plot improvements #1011
  • Time response plot improvements #1018
  • More uniform interface (Control plot refactoring for consistent functionality #1034)
  • More consistent handling of tickmark labels (see comments in Control plot refactoring for consistent functionality #1034; PR Update shared axes processing in plot_time_response #1040).
• Various small improvements to signal/system naming in nlsys (Small improvements to nlsys, bdalg #1019)
• New examples (in the style of control tutorials): these are the example/cds110_*.ipynb notebooks, which I plan to rename to be of the form examples/cds110-Ln_*.ipynb, where n is an ordering in case you want to go through them one by one. (CDS 110 and CDS 112 Jupyter notebooks #1037)
• Documentation updates: make sure all arguments are documented, deprecated functions are processed in a uniform way. (Documentation updates and testing #1038)

I hope to get this released by end of July, so that anyone using python-control for fall courses has the latest version.

Thoughts on other things we should take care of in this release are welcome.
