Motivation
Contributors might get confused by our current documentation stating Python 3.11+ is needed as Python 3.12 does not have full support at this time.
For dev environments we already have a checked in
.python-versionfile in the top level, which would get picked up by any python version manager (e.g., pyenv).This can already serve as the single source of truth for this.
Changes
.python-versionand handle the version themselves.
