Support for Python 3.12 and 3.13

[etiennnr]

What is the feature and why do you need it: I see in the main README that the last supported version is 3.11 ().

Would it be possible / complicated to also support python 3.12 and 3.13? Or is it just that the pypi metadata has simply never been updated ?

Describe the solution you'd like to see:

Hi, Is this package compatible with python 3.12 ?

We can add the support in the next release (1.34). cc @yliaog Ref required changes: https://github.com/kubernetes-client/python/pull/2029, https://github.com/kubernetes-client/python/pull/2003

@roycaihw I see that release 1.34.1 is already out, however, still no official support for python 3.12 or 3.13 or 3.14 (out since last week now)...

Is this still in scope ?

Python 3.12 has been in the test config since the start of the year: https://github.com/kubernetes-client/python/commit/f7701ac020645c847f537553e28721c234789090

Other than updating https://github.com/kubernetes-client/python/blob/master/setup.py#L80-L86 (which list 3.6 to 3.11 as the supported versions, perhaps time to remove 3.6 to 3.9 as they are all now out of support) is there anything else that needs doing (e.g. anything that someone such as myself could volunteer to help with) to help get the client officially supporting 3.12?

Hello @durera,

Thanks for the reply! Yeah, we started using it since I saw that there were already unit testing in place for 3.12 (in GHA). It's working pretty well, we didn't have any issues. Hence, I think we "just" need to add it to the officially supported list. I also agree to stop supporting 3.6-3.9, I guess maintainers can agree or not in the PR's review.

I think efforts should instead be put in supporting 3.13 and 3.14 IMHO.
