[Feature Request] Support for Python 3.12

[benz0li]

What is your request?

Please add wheels for Python 3.12.

What is your motivation for this change?

TensorFlow 2.16.1 already supports Python 3.12:

• https://www.tensorflow.org/install/source#gpu

PyTorch 2.2 has experimental support for Python 3.12:

• https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/RELEASE.md#release-compatibility-matrix

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS will also ship with Python 3.12.

Any other details?

MAX_PATH=$(modular config max.path)
python3 -m pip install --find-links $MAX_PATH/wheels max-engine

Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable

@lattner Great to see a shift towards OSS with Mojo and MAX.

Is there a timeframe regarding support for Python 3.12?

Keep up the great work! Very much appreciated.
