Subject: [PATCH] Add requires-python >=3.10 to pyproject.toml

Without it, pip resolves and installs liger-kernel on any interpreter,
so users on unsupported Pythons get runtime failures instead of a clean
resolver message. The floor matches the project's CI: every test and
release workflow runs Python 3.10.

Fixes #1302
