Test upgrade from Python 3.13 to 3.14 in both stages: - Builder stage: ghcr.io/astral-sh/uv:python3.14-alpine - Runtime stage: python:3.14-alpine - Updated symlink from python3.13 to python3.14 This will test if Python 3.14 works with the proper uv-based Dockerfile.
Python 3.14 doesn't have pre-built wheels for pydantic-core yet. Added Rust and Cargo to the builder stage to compile from source. This confirms the original issue: "The wheels aren't ready on Docker for it." The build will be slower and the image larger due to Rust compilation, which is why staying on Python 3.13 may be preferable until wheels are available.

Purpose
Test Python 3.14 upgrade with the proper sophisticated Dockerfile (not the simplified version from earlier attempts).

Original issue was CORRECT: "The wheels aren't ready on Docker for it."
The first build attempt failed with:
Root cause:
pydantic-core(and likely other packages) don't have pre-built wheels for Python 3.14 yet, requiring compilation from source with Rust.Tradeoffs of Python 3.14 Right Now
❌ Downsides
✅ Upsides
Recommendation
Wait 2-4 months for the ecosystem to mature:
Testing
This PR will test if Python 3.14 works with Rust compilation. If it succeeds, we can merge it, but the build performance penalty may not be worth it yet.
Rollback Plan
If this fails or if we decide the tradeoffs aren't worth it, simply close this PR. Master remains on Python 3.13 and is unaffected.
Verdict: You were right about the wheels! 🎯
