Version 0.17.4 in pyproject.toml and uv.lock, the ## 0.17.4 changelog section, and STATUS (0.17.4 released, wave-1 follow-ups).

0.17.4 is wave 1 of the audit fixes (epic #87), on data safety. It contains five PRs, each independently reviewed and merged with CI green on its head commit while up to date with main:

Batch	PR	Closes	Refs
B1 write safety and finalisation	#111	#89	F003, F015, F016, F022, F023, F024, F037, F070, F073, F074, F082, F083, F088, F093, F095, F137, F145
B2a matrix and text importers	#105	#90	F001, F026, F050, F111, F129
B2b table, dataframe, JSON and array codecs	#106	#91	F018, F019, F020, F034, F035, F063, F064, F065, F067, F068, F069, F080, F089, F127, F128
B3a concat correctness	#108	#92	F002, F010, F028, F051–F057, F115, F117
B7 dependencies	#107	#98	F039, F158

The changelog section is assembled from each PR's "Changelog entry". The summary paragraph is new.

Checked locally on main plus B1 plus this commit, before B1 merged: the unit suite at 80 columns passed (2663, coverage 95.68%), and so did the anndata 0.8–0.13 compatibility suite (204). Once this PR is merged, tag 0.17.4 on main.

Wave 2 (#109, #110, #112, and B3b, B4 and B5 still to come) merges only after this tag.
