Log message:
py-xarray: updated to 2025.10.1

v2025.10.1 (October 7, 2025)

This release reverts a breaking change to Xarray's preferred netCDF backend.

Breaking changes

- Xarray's default engine for reading/writing netCDF files has been reverted to
  prefer netCDF4 over h5netcdf over scipy, which was the default before
  v2025.09.1. This change had larger implications for the ecosystem than we
  anticipated. We are still considering changing the default in the future, but
  will be a bit more careful about the implications. See :issue:`10657` and
  linked issues for discussion. The behavior can still be customized, e.g., with
  ``xr.set_options(netcdf_engine_order=['h5netcdf', 'netcdf4', 'scipy'])``.

New features

- Coordinates are ordered to match dims when displaying Xarray objects. \ 
(:pull:`10778`).

Bug fixes

- Fix error raised when writing scalar variables to Zarr with ``region={}``

v2025.08.0 (August 14, 2025)

netCDF as bytes, fixes a number of bugs, and starts an important deprecation \ 
cycle for changing the default values of keyword arguments for various xarray \ 
combining functions.
