OCaml 5.5.0 released with module-dependent functions and relocatable compiler

OCaml version 5.5.0 has been released, coinciding with Blaise Pascal's birthday. This update introduces several key features, including module-dependent functions for more flexible module usage, a relocatable compiler to streamline switch creation, and the ability to define higher-rank polymorphic functions directly with type annotations. Additionally, the String module now includes enhanced functions for searching and replacing substrings, and generalized local definitions allow for local definitions of types, classes, and modules.
