chore(main): release 9.5.0 (#294)

🤖 I have created a release *beep* *boop*
---


##
[9.5.0](9.4.0...9.5.0)
(2024-07-25)

This release introduces the ability to enable compression of event
payloads. When enabled, the SDK will compress events before sending them
to the LaunchDarkly servers. This can reduce the bandwidth required to
send events, which can be useful in high-traffic environments to reduce
egress traffic costs.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> Relay Proxy users **MUST** upgrade to version 8.9 or higher prior to
enabling this option to prevent loss of event data.
>
> However, enabling this feature is **NOT** required when using the
Relay Proxy as it will manage compression automatically.


### Features

* Add option to enable event payload compression
([#300](#300))
([87c56c9](87c56c9))


### Bug Fixes

* Log warning if client init timeout is considered high
([#295](#295))
