Code Review

This pull request updates the documentation to reflect the release of version 0.40.0, including highlights such as offline search support, colorblind-friendly themes, and a new prompt-driven memory management system. The review feedback suggests correcting the version comparison link to ensure it spans from the previous stable release (v0.39.0) and recommends curating the auto-generated 'What's Changed' list to remove internal meta-PRs and maintain consistent formatting in line with Conventional Commits standards.
