LibraryOverride fix and release current fixes

+## 0.4.1
+
+- fix resolving callback trait implementations declared in submodules of the current crate. Previously, traits like `my_crate::metrics::MetricsRecorder` failed with "no interface with module_path" during code generation.
+- fix Java keyword collisions in generated callback helper class names. Callback methods named after Java keywords (e.g., `record`) no longer produce invalid nested type declarations. Thanks @criccomini for this and the above fix!
+- fix `libraryOverride` system property to work with absolute paths. Previously, passing an absolute path via `-Duniffi.component.<namespace>.libraryOverride=/path/to/lib.so` would fail because it was always passed to `System.loadLibrary()`. Now absolute paths are correctly routed to `System.load()`.
+
 ## 0.4.0
 
 - switched from JNA generated bindings to FFM ones. Benchmarked performance speedup (via upstream benchmark suite) is from 4.2x-426x.

+## Library Loading
+
+By default, the generated code uses `System.loadLibrary()` to find the native library via `java.library.path`. If your native library lives outside the standard search paths or automatic discovery doesn't work for your environment, you can specify an absolute path at runtime using a system property:
+
+```
+java -Duniffi.component.<namespace>.libraryOverride=/path/to/libmylib.so ...
+```
+
+Where `<namespace>` is the UniFFI namespace of your component (e.g., `arithmetic`). When the override is an absolute path, the generated code uses `System.load()` instead of `System.loadLibrary()`, bypassing `java.library.path` entirely.
+
+You can also pass a plain library name as the override, in which case it behaves like `System.loadLibrary()` and still requires the library to be on `java.library.path`.
+
 ## Notes
 
 - failures in CompletableFutures will cause them to `completeExceptionally`. The error that caused the failure can be checked with `e.getCause()`. When implementing an async Rust trait in Java, you'll need to `completeExceptionally` instead of throwing. See `TestFixtureFutures.java` for an example trait implementation with errors.
