Cannot install on Python 3.11

[hoh]

We get the following error:

ERROR: Cannot install aleph-sdk-python and aleph-sdk-python==0.7.0 because these package versions have conflicting dependencies.

The conflict is caused by:
    aleph-sdk-python 0.7.0 depends on coincurve>=17.0.0; python_version >= "3.11"
    eciespy 0.3.13 depends on coincurve<18 and >=13

[hoh]

PyPI provides binaries for eciespy 17 until Python 3.10. I get a build error on Debian 12.

[hoh]

When attempting to build on Debian 12:

From a Docker image, I had to run apt install autoconf libtool make pkg-config python3-dev to get the package to build. It's a lot of dependencies though.

[hoh]

pkg-config is in transition, pkgconf should be used instead.

Interesting enough, 3.11 works just fine on macOS, but not 3.12: https://github.com/aleph-im/aleph-sdk-python/pull/74

[hoh]

I use the SDK on Python 3.11 all the time, I guess this is solved.
