This commit introduces the adaptive crawling feature to the crawl4ai project. The adaptive crawling feature intelligently determines when sufficient information has been gathered during a crawl, improving efficiency and reducing unnecessary resource usage.
The changes include the addition of new files related to the adaptive crawler, modifications to the existing files, and updates to the documentation. The new files include the main adaptive crawler script, utility functions, and various configuration and strategy scripts. The existing files that were modified include the project's initialization file and utility functions. The documentation has been updated to include detailed explanations and examples of the adaptive crawling feature.
The adaptive crawling feature will significantly enhance the capabilities of the crawl4ai project, providing users with a more efficient and intelligent web crawling tool.
Significant modifications:
- Added adaptive_crawler.py and related scripts
- Modified __init__.py and utils.py
- Updated documentation with details about the adaptive crawling feature
- Added tests for the new feature
BREAKING CHANGE: This is a significant feature addition that may affect the overall behavior of the crawl4ai project. Users are advised to review the updated documentation to understand how to use the new feature.

BREAKING CHANGE: LlmConfig has been renamed to LLMConfig. Users need to update their imports and usage.
This major release adds deep crawling capabilities, memory-adaptive dispatcher,
multiple crawling strategies, Docker deployment, and a new CLI. It also includes
significant improvements to proxy handling, PDF processing, and LLM integration.
BREAKING CHANGES:
- Add memory-adaptive dispatcher as default for arun_many()
- Move max_depth to CrawlerRunConfig
- Replace ScrapingMode enum with strategy pattern
- Update BrowserContext API
- Make model fields optional with defaults
- Remove content_filter parameter from CrawlerRunConfig
- Remove synchronous WebCrawler and old CLI
- Update Docker deployment configuration
- Replace FastFilterChain with FilterChain
- Change license to Apache 2.0 with attribution clause
### New Features:
- **Text-Only Mode**: Added support for text-only crawling by disabling images, JavaScript, GPU, and other non-essential features.
- **Light Mode**: Optimized browser settings to reduce resource usage and improve efficiency during crawling.
- **Dynamic Viewport Adjustment**: Automatically adjusts viewport dimensions based on content size, ensuring accurate rendering and scaling.
- **Full Page Scanning**: Introduced a feature to scroll and capture dynamic content for pages with infinite scroll or lazy-loading elements.
- **Session Management**: Added `create_session` method for creating and managing browser sessions with unique IDs.
### Improvements:
- Unified viewport handling across contexts by dynamically setting dimensions using `self.viewport_width` and `self.viewport_height`.
- Enhanced logging and error handling for viewport adjustments, page scanning, and content evaluation.
- Reduced resource usage with additional browser flags for both `light_mode` and `text_only` configurations.
- Improved handling of cookies, headers, and proxies in session creation.
### Refactoring:
- Removed hardcoded viewport dimensions and replaced them with dynamic configurations.
- Cleaned up unused and commented-out code for better readability and maintainability.
- Introduced defaults for frequently used parameters like `delay_before_return_html`.
### Fixes:
- Resolved potential inconsistencies in viewport handling.
- Improved robustness of content loading and dynamic adjustments to avoid failures and timeouts.
### Docs Update:
- Updated schema usage in `quickstart_async.py` example:
- Changed `OpenAIModelFee.schema()` to `OpenAIModelFee.model_json_schema()` for compatibility.
- Enhanced LLM extraction instruction documentation.
This commit introduces significant enhancements to improve efficiency, flexibility, and reliability of the crawler strategy.
