🐍 Migrate to Python 3.10

Description

This PR migrates the entire codebase from Python 3.9 to Python 3.10, ensuring compatibility with the latest stable Python release and enabling access to new language features and performance improvements.

Changes Made

• CI/CD Workflows: Updated GitHub Actions workflows (ci-release.yml, ci-staging.yml) to use Python 3.10
• Service Dependencies: Updated all setup.py files across services to require Python 3.10 (python_requires="~=3.10")
• Code Modernization: Removed deprecated loop=asyncio.get_event_loop() parameter from asyncpg connection setup, aligning with Python 3.10+ best practices

Motivation

Upgrading to Python 3.10 provides several benefits:

• Performance Improvements: 4% overall interpreter speed improvement, 36-44% faster attribute access, and optimized built-in functions
• Enhanced Type System: Support for union types with | operator and improved type hinting capabilities
• Better Error Messages: Significantly improved SyntaxError reporting with better location information
• New Language Features: Access to structural pattern matching and other modern Python features
• Security: Continued security updates and support from the Python core team

Impact

This is a breaking change that affects:

• 🔧 Development Environment: All developers must upgrade to Python 3.10
• 🏗️ Build Systems: CI/CD pipelines now use Python 3.10
• 📦 Deployment: Production environments must support Python 3.10
• 🧪 Testing: All tests now run on Python 3.10
