Release 2.2.3

Highlights

This patch release adds env-var configuration for object stores (closes the gap for env-var-only deployments such as the DataJoint platform, Kubernetes, and Lambda) and ships several minor fixes and documentation improvements.

• DJ_STORES — JSON-encoded copy of the stores dict, same shape as in datajoint.json. Replaces the file's stores block when set, with arbitrary adapter-defined attribute names (token, api_key, workspace_url…).
• DJ_IGNORE_CONFIG_FILE (default false) — when true, skips datajoint.json, the project .secrets/, and /run/secrets/datajoint/ entirely. Hard guarantee that no file on disk leaks into config.
• .secrets/stores.<name>.<attr> now accepts any attribute, not only access_key / secret_key — supports plugin-registered adapters (e.g. Databricks Unity Catalog Volumes) with non-S3-style credential fields.

Precedence (high → low): programmatic dj.config["stores"] > DJ_STORES > datajoint.json > .secrets/stores.<name>.<attr> (fills missing attrs only).
