v0.15.0 - Drop Python 3.10 Support (2026-03-04)

What Changed?

This release raises the minimum supported Python version from 3.10 to 3.11 for both the library and all example scripts. Python 3.11 has been stable since October 2022 and provides tomllib in the standard library. Python 3.10 reaches end-of-life in October 2026.

uv python install 3.11
