Update all development dependencies

[rmartin16]

Changes

• Dependabot is seemingly unable to update dependencies if a directory contains both a setup.cfg and setup.py
• Currently the dependencies are about 9 months out of date....this brings them all to their latest version

PR Checklist:

• All new features have been tested
• All new features have been documented
• I have read the CONTRIBUTING.md file
• I will abide by the code of conduct

well....this is much more interesting now. pre-commit is failing on running this version of black in CI....

/me grumbles... Github will send me three emails to notify me that someone has commented on a PR, and will email me when I comment on a ticket, but won't email me when an automated process fails....

Was finally able to replicate locally....might have something to do with Python 3.12.

Nonetheless, I looked at the file it was complaining about:

❯ cat /home/russell/.cache/pre-commit/repol2sy9qbl/.pre-commit-hooks.yaml
# Note that we recommend using https://github.com/psf/black-pre-commit-mirror instead
# This will work about 2x as fast as using the hooks in this repository
- id: black
  name: black
  description: "Black: The uncompromising Python code formatter"
  entry: black
  stages: [pre-commit, pre-merge-commit, pre-push, manual]
  language: python
  minimum_pre_commit_version: 2.9.2
  require_serial: true
  types_or: [python, pyi]
- id: black-jupyter
  name: black-jupyter
  description:
    "Black: The uncompromising Python code formatter (with Jupyter Notebook support)"
  entry: black
  stages: [pre-commit, pre-merge-commit, pre-push, manual]
  language: python
  minimum_pre_commit_version: 2.9.2
  require_serial: true
  types_or: [python, pyi, jupyter]
  additional_dependencies: [".[jupyter]"]

Given the top two lines, I switched the config to use the mirror and things seem to be working now....

FWIW, the "we" that is making this recommendation is apparently the maintainers of black....since this file comes from its repo: https://github.com/psf/black/blob/main/.pre-commit-hooks.yaml

ohhh....the version of pre-commit that Toga uses is 9 months old....I'm guessing Dependabot doesn't recursively look for setup.cfg files...???? or is something intentional going on here?

Definitely nothing intentional; I can't explain why pre-commit isn't being updated.

Dependabot isn't updating anything in core/setup.cfg....all of the dependencies are out of date:

https://github.com/beeware/toga/network/updates/748619508

I wonder if it's only checking setup.py and moving on or something....

[freakboy3742]

Hrm - I wonder if this is a case of having setup.py confusing the setup - if we moved to a setup.cfg-only configuration, it wouldn't think that the configuration is in setup.py, and therefore miss that all the dependencies are in setup.cfg.

[rmartin16]

Yep; I just duplicated the toga repo, deleted core/setup.py, re-ran Dependabot and it created several PRs until it logged "Dependabot cannot open any more pull requests".

I'll just manually update everything in this PR for now to reset us.

Can't argue with CI success.
