Summary description: TikZ-native shapes and anchors for classical physics diagrams
Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------
tikzphysics 1.8.0 adds shared piston-cylinder closed-system diagrams with configurable gas, heat and work labels and percentage coordinates. Compact percentage-anchor storage fixes TeX memory exhaustion in project-local Overleaf runtimes. Differential dimensions use external inward ->| / |<- arrows; rotating-fluid slice arrows and configurable hatching are corrected. Thermodynamic annotations inherit document fonts. Phased-wave endpoints and projected-solid fills/patterns now follow their native geometry. Updated manual, examples, regression checks and single-file bundle generator included.
