Version 7.11.1
===============

Patch release: **honest** ``Multiplicity.max`` **typing and idiomatic empty-list
literals**. A metamodel type-hint and lint cleanup with no behavioural change —
it only aligns the declared types with existing runtime behaviour.

Highlights
----------

- **Honest** ``Multiplicity.max`` **input typing**: the ``Multiplicity``
  constructor and ``max`` setter now declare ``int | Literal["*"]`` instead of
  plain ``int``. ``"*"`` has always been accepted and normalised to
  ``UNLIMITED_MAX_MULTIPLICITY`` at runtime, but the old signature claimed
  ``int``, so callers — and static type checkers — passing ``"*"`` saw a false
  type error. The getter stays ``int``, since a normalised value is always
  returned. Docstrings were updated to match.
- **Idiomatic empty lists**: ``Method`` parameter / precondition / postcondition
  initialisation uses the ``[]`` literal instead of ``list()`` (SonarQube rule
  ``python:S7498``).

No runtime behaviour changes, and no metamodel or API contract changes.
