Publish `cesium-native-python` cp313 wheels and min python required

[jo-chemla]

First of all, I've discovered this repo via CesiumGS/cesium-native#979 pointing to the dedicated python thread, now live in the projects-using-cesium-native section of the readme and must say it's looking pretty promising!

I'm experimenting with integrating cesium-native-python into a Blender addon/plugin for OGC 3D Tiles streaming - a long-time dream of mine, twin request also on blender.community.

Blender 5.1+ ships with Python 3.13, while earlier versions do ship with 3.11. The earlier blender versions therefore do not satisfy the documented python>=3.12 requirement, hence 2 quick questions:

• Are there plans to publish cp313 wheels? Or is building from source currently required.
• Also, is the documented Python 3.12 minimum a hard requirement, or simply the minimum version currently tested? If 3.11 support is feasible, that would allow integration with Blender 4.x as well.

Thanks for getting back!

(I'm tempted to ping @donmccurdy since you joined cesium, if I remember blender 3D-tiles streaming was also something you mentioned was of interest but I might be wrong here in which case completely sorry about that!)

@jo-chemla thanks for the issue and your interest! Sorry for the late response

Python 3.12 was just the version I was testing / developing on, but I don't think there's any reason it can be 3.11. In can bump that down and build early next week

Yes I'd actually love to publish the wheels to pypy, I just hadn't gotten around to the CI/CD yet and wanted to make sure it was working thoroughly before publishing. But if it's been working for you (building from source) I'm happy to start working on that

If you have any thoughts / suggestions on the bindings before publishing let me know
