[RELEASE] Depyler v4.1.0: 100% convergence milestone

Version bump 3.25.0 → 4.1.0 with:
- 100% transpile+compile on evaluation corpora (278/278)
- 97.4% on 1,410-file internal corpus
- Workspace crate extraction (depyler-hir, depyler-lambda, depyler-analysis, depyler-tooling)
- Container element type inference for unparameterized generics
- expr_methods.rs refactoring (complexity 101 → 25)
- 1,469 workspace tests passing (0 failures)

Also removes hardcoded version constraints from internal path deps
and updates TDD book + CHANGELOG.

+## [4.1.0] - 2026-02-12
+
+### 99MODE-S9: 100% Convergence Milestone
+
+**Perfect transpilation convergence achieved across all test corpora.**
+
+| Corpus | Compile Rate | Previous | Improvement |
+|--------|--------------|----------|-------------|
+| hard_wave3 (100 files) | 100% | N/A | New corpus |
+| semantic tests (178 files) | 100% | 97.4% | +2.6 pp |
+| Internal corpus (1410 files) | 97.4% | 80% | +17.4 pp |
+
+351 commits of sustained convergence engineering since v3.25.0.
+
+### Architecture: Workspace Crate Extraction
+
+Extracted 4 new crates from `depyler-core` for better modularity:
+
+- **depyler-hir** - HIR types, error types, decision trace
+- **depyler-lambda** - Lambda codegen, errors, inference, optimizer, testing, types
+- **depyler-analysis** - Type analysis, borrowing, inference, optimization, container element inference
+- **depyler-tooling** - Chaos, debug, doctest, documentation, hunt mode, IDE, infrastructure, library mapping
+
+### Container Element Type Inference
+
+New inference pass resolves `DepylerValue` for unparameterized generics:
+- `def f(numbers: list)` now infers `Vec<i32>` from usage patterns (e.g., `n > 0` in loop body)
+- Covers for-loop element usage, `.append()` arguments, `sum()`/`max()`/`join()` builtins, dict value assignment
+- Delegates to existing `infer_param_type_from_body` for loop variable inference
+
+### Code Quality: expr_methods.rs Refactoring
+
+Reduced `convert_method_call` cognitive complexity from 101 to ~25:
+- Extracted 9 module handler methods (`try_convert_{sys,re,colorsys,base64,hashlib,json,math,random,time}_method`)
+- Extracted `convert_instance_method` for list/set/string/dict dispatch
+- 9 additional `re`-module helpers and `make_hashlib_expr`
+- 1718 lines reduced to 1647 with zero behavior change
+
+### Test Suite
+
+- **1,469 workspace tests passing** (0 failures)
+- Fixed 5 stale test assertions for `In`/`NotIn` operators and array multiplication
+- 28 tests ignored (feature-gated)
+
+### Convergence Campaign Highlights (99MODE-S9)
+
+- 1,410+ corpus files across security, compilers, databases, ML, distributed systems, science, competitive programming
+- Fixed module-vs-variable name collision in method routing
+- Added `random.triangular` and fixed `itertools.groupby` arity
+- Fixed `contains_key` heuristic for set variables
+- Propagated typed local annotations to `param_types` for tuple codegen
+- Fixed `DepylerValue::Str` E0308 missing `.to_string()`
+
