Changelog Inclusion

• Consider for changelog and release notes addition

Additional Context

• Python 3.10 enables use of newer type union syntax (X | Y) and pattern matching, and drops support for end-of-life 3.8/3.9.
• The pytest fix resolves a collection warning/error introduced in pytest 8.x under Python 3.12.
• The CI workflow (.github/workflows/python.yml) was updated to test against the new minimum version.
