   Removing Python 3.9 Support ✅

   I've successfully removed EOL Python 3.9 support from the packaging infrastructure and GitHub Actions workflows.

   Todo List:

   • Analyze current Python 3.9 references in the codebase
   • Update packaging configuration (pyproject.toml)
   • Update GitHub Actions workflows
   • Update documentation files
   • Run formatting and linting checks
   • Commit and push changes
   • Provide PR creation link

   Changes Made:

   pyproject.toml:

   • Updated requires-python from >=3.9.2,<3.15 to >=3.10,<3.15
   • Removed Programming Language :: Python :: 3.9 classifier
   • Updated black target-version to remove py39

   GitHub Actions Workflows:

   • .github/workflows/test.yml: Removed Python 3.9 from test matrix
   • .github/workflows/lint.yml: Removed Python 3.9 from lint matrix

   Documentation:
