Release tracker - 3.2.0

[ScottTodd]

Overview

Our previous stable release was cut on 2025-01-07: https://github.com/iree-org/iree/releases/tag/v3.1.0. We aim for roughly one stable release every 6 weeks, which will be around 2025-02-17. This issue tracks the release process for the next release.

Release process docs:

• https://iree.dev/developers/general/release-management/
• https://github.com/iree-org/iree/blob/main/RELEASING.md

Release checklist:

• Watch for major/breaking changes and decide to either batch them with this release or defer them until the next release
• Choose a release candidate from nightly releases to promote. The candidate should contain no major regressions and should include all packages, even those marked experimental in .github/workflows/build_package.yml like macOS and Windows packages.
• Compile release notes
• Promote to stable (on GitHub) and push packages to PyPI
• Roll forward downstream packages like iree-turbine and push similar package updates to PyPI
• Update release process docs for next time

Notable changes

Framework support

• The TOSA dialect, commonly used when importing from TensorFlow Lite (LiteRT), is in the process of incrementing to v1.0: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-tosa-dialect-increment-to-v1-0/83708. During this transition, we anticipate that files imported from .tflite to .mlirbc may not be compatible with the IREE compiler. See Bump to llvm/llvm-project@3f1486f #19683 for more details.
