Maybe we can delay testing on python 3.14 (python-latest) and stick with testing on 3.13 explicitly for the main branch until this sorts out. It's various build-errors for dependencies (pyarrow on linux, something pyogrio on windows)

Made a PR: #14

Ubuntu works, MacOS and Windows still fail on 3.14.

On mac, I'm stuck py7zr --> deflate64, which has a python upper limit that should be resolved...

Got 3.14 working, required some additional pandas changes.
Removed 3.10 as it's running out of support this year anyway and allows us to update numpy.

• Removed deprecated copy=False parameter from pandas astype() method for pandas 3.0 compatibility
• Added "str" to string dtype detection for forward compatibility with pandas/numpy dtype representations
