Pull request overview

This pull request introduces version 2.0.0 of Smart Reference, a significant update that adds asset lifecycle management, expanded async support, and improved documentation. The update transforms Smart Reference from a simple lazy-loading solution into a more complete asset management system with release capabilities and multiple async patterns.

Key Changes:

• Added asset release API with Cancel support for managing asset lifecycle and memory
• Implemented UniTask support alongside existing Task-based async for performance-critical scenarios
• Introduced handle-based architecture (ISmartReferenceHandle, ResourcesHandle, AddressablesHandle) to track loading operations
• Added comprehensive test suites (PlayModeTests and EditModeTests) with 400+ lines of test coverage
• Expanded documentation with dedicated manual pages for initialization, loading patterns, releasing, and custom loaders
