build!: Bump minimum Python version to 3.10

Given how widespread PY310's usage has become, and how we're just a
few months away from PY311 major release. This is a slightly late
bumping but necessary to ensure smoother updates & maintenance for
Frappe, ERPNext & other apps in the coming years. Almost all people
who participated in the pool from the community as well as Frappe team
voted (via active telegram groups) PY310 as their preferred minimum
requirement for v14.
