[Release 5.1] (https://github.com/CGAL/cgal/releases/tag/releases%2FCGAL-5.1)
### 3D Fast Intersection and Distance Computation
- The introduction of the usage of the search tree by default for all distance queries
in the 5.0 release was actually not lazy contrary to what was announced. The behavior of the
search tree is now the following: it will be used except if an explicit call to `do_not_accelerate_distance_queries()`
is made. The construction of the search tree (once insertion of primitives is done) will be triggered by the first
distance query or by an explicit call to `accelerate_distance_queries()`.
- **Breaking change**: `accelerate_distance_queries()` and `do_not_accelerate_distance_queries()` are not longer `const` functions.
### Optimal Bounding Box (new package)
- This package implements an optimization algorithm that aims to construct a close approximation
of the *optimal bounding box* of a mesh or a point set, which is defined as the smallest
