chore(deps): update rendercv requirement from >=1.10 to >=2.8 in /backend

[dependabot]

Updates the requirements on rendercv to permit the latest version.

Release notes

Sourced from rendercv's releases.

v2.8

Full Changelog: rendercv/rendercv@v2.7...v2.8

Added

• Four new themes have been added: harvard, ink, opal, and ember.
• Four new centered section title types have been added: centered_without_line, centered_with_partial_line, centered_with_centered_partial_line, and centered_with_full_line.
• Built-in locale defaults for 2 additional languages have been added: Vietnamese and Hungarian.
• Multi-platform Docker builds are now available for both linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 (#697).

Changed

• The rendercv-typst Typst package is now bundled inside the Python package. RenderCV no longer requires an internet connection to compile PDFs, as it no longer needs to download the package from Typst Universe at runtime. The package will continue to be published on Typst Universe for standalone Typst users.

Fixed

• Custom fonts folder not being found when using a relative input path has been fixed (#692).
• CLI overrides like --design.theme no longer crash when the target section is not present in the main YAML file (#595).
• The SUMMARY placeholder can now be used inline in templates (#653).
• Design and locale overlay files specified in YAML settings.render_command are now loaded correctly (#690).
• Copied template files are now made writable for immutable distributions like NixOS (#673).
• Markdown lines are now processed independently to prevent cross-line emphasis interference (#685).
• Connector words in phrases no longer appear when their associated placeholder is empty (e.g., "BS in Mechanical Engineering" now correctly renders as "Mechanical Engineering" when the degree is omitted, instead of "in Mechanical Engineering").
• EducationEntry location placement in markdown output has been fixed (#691).
