Bugfix release

This is a bug fix release.

• #455: pip install pyobjc on a macOS 12.2 machine tried to install pyobjc-framework-ScreenCaptureKit, which is only can be installed on macOS 12.3 or later.

• #456: Fix bad metadata for HIServices.AXIsProcessTrustedWithOptions

• Wheels were build with Xcode 13.3 RC

  There are no changes in framework bindings relative to PyObjC 8.4 because there are no relevant API changes in Xcode 13.3 RC.

v8.4

• The bindings for the Message and ServerNotification frameworks, which were removed in macOS 10.9, will be removed in PyObjC 9.

• Added bindings for ScreenCaptureKit (new in macOS 12.3)

• Updated framework bindings for the macOS 12.3 SDK.

  Based on Xcode 13.3 beta 3

• Reverted a change in 8.3: It is once again not possible to use the "is" operator to check if two proxies for an NSString refer to the same Cocoa object.

  The change in 8.3 changed long standng behaviour for mutable strings and may have caused unintended problems.

• #418: Added :class:typing.NewType definitions to the various framework bindings for all enum types in Cocoa (such as NSComparisonResult).

  Using this it is now possible to annotate methods returning such types, although it is not yet possible to type check this.

  For example:

  .. sourcecode:: python

  class MyObject(NSObject): def compare_(self, other: NSObject) -> NSComparisonResult: return NSOrderSame
