chore: drop Python 3.8 and 3.9 support

[nightcityblade]

Description

Remove support for Python 3.8 and 3.9, both of which have reached end-of-life.

Changes:

• Update requires-python from >=3.8 to >=3.10 in pyproject.toml
• Remove Python 3.8 and 3.9 classifiers from pyproject.toml
• Simplify codecarbon/input.py to use stdlib importlib.resources directly (available since Python 3.9) instead of conditionally falling back to the importlib_resources backport
• Remove unused import sys from input.py

Related Issue

Fixes #1082

Motivation and Context

Python 3.8 reached EOL on 2024-10-07 and Python 3.9 reached EOL on 2025-10-05. Dropping support simplifies the codebase and allows using modern Python features.

How Has This Been Tested?

Verified that importlib.resources.files and importlib.resources.as_file are available in Python 3.10+ (they were added in Python 3.9).

Thanks for your contribution!
The CONTRIBUTING.md might also need some update on python version.

@nightcityblade Thanks. Almost there :) It seems there are some minor pre-commit errors related to formatting. Would you be able to fix those?
