chore: update Python requirement to 3.10+

## Python Version Update
- Updated requires-python to >=3.10 (was >=3.9)
- Both a2a-sdk and mcp require Python 3.10+
- Added Python 3.13 to classifiers

## Documentation Updates
- Updated README badge to show Python 3.10+
- Updated IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md
- Updated TESTING_STATUS.md
- Removed Python 3.9 compatibility notes

## Rationale
Since both official SDKs (a2a-sdk and mcp) require Python 3.10+,
there's no reason to maintain Python 3.9 compatibility. This
simplifies the codebase and allows use of modern Python features.

All tests still pass with Python 3.10+:
- mypy --strict ✅
- black formatting ✅
- ruff linting ✅
