Installed latest stable build on latest Python version causes lxml to fail to build #613

Describe the bug

When installing using the command uv tool install ofscraper --force, the OF-Scraper fails to install as lxml fails to build. Looking online pointed to this being an issue with lxml, or with OF-Scraper pinning the required version of lxml. Installing specifying Python version 3.11 solves this issue. uv tool install ofscraper --force --python 3.11

To Reproduce

Attempt to install using command from project documentation uv tool install ofscraper --force.

Expected behavior

Tool should install successfully.

Screenshots/Logs

Logs are required for any reports of any issue, unless the issue is related to setup of script
Logs must be at least debug level

Hint: Please make sure that the log formatting is readable, use a paste site
like
Logs for install fail (first command) and install pass (second command)

Config

N/A. Following install instructions from the project documentation and using UV for install. On my reading, I could not find any guidance stating the latest Python version is incompatible with the latest release.
