shields.io caches the pypi/v badge for six hours, so it showed the previous version for hours after each release. The dynamic badge reads PyPI's JSON API directly and is cached for two minutes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

After the v0.2.1 release the PyPI badge kept showing v0.2.0. shields.io caches
pypi/vbadges for 6 hours (max-age=21600), and that floor can't be lowered withcacheSeconds.This switches to a dynamic badge that reads
info.versionfrom PyPI's JSON API. It's cached for 2 minutes and looks the same: labelpypi, valuev0.2.1, same logo and colour.The Homebrew badge already uses a dynamic badge with the same 2-minute cache. The Python versions badge keeps its 12-hour cache, since supported versions rarely change.
