Upgrades

[OliveraReeves]

The main change is that the Dockerfile and dependencies have been updated to use Poetry and Python 3.11, with the option to move to Python 3.14 if required. The build script will be updated separately.

Where possible, dependencies have been updated to newer versions; however, some are constrained by transitive dependencies.

Cornflake has been switched from the PyPI package to a Git URL due to a required patch to support newer Python versions.

Looking ahead, it may be worth considering a rewrite of the serializers using Pydantic or Marshmallow, which are more standard within Flask applications. However, this would be a significantly larger refactor and is out of scope for the current changes. this would also remove the need for cornflake as this supersedes it.

Additionally, a number of SQLAlchemy relationships were identified as potentially problematic and have been updated to address these issues. Enums are swapped to use the inbuilt sqla enums and not the extensions( this has been removed)

The use of cls in certain areas has also been replaced with self for correctness and consistency.

Due to updates in SQLAlchemy, the database URL in the settings must use postgresql instead of postgres.

I have update this to include ticket RDR-913, RDR-932, this also address UK-228. Locally the dev compose is all working fine, all that needs testing and changing is the production yaml and the docs/ server side changes. After this is merged i will make another pr to fix the linting mypy, ruff issues

It would be worth looking at...

Found 16 dependency issues.

If any are removed there may be some corresponding "types" files mentioned in Tox.ini which can be removed.

I would remove the "migrations" folder from the Tox checks, as it's auto-generated code but still flagging errors.

It might be worth doing "Black" on the code but I wouldn't do that as part of this PR.

@OliveraReeves has this stalled?

@OliveraReeves has this stalled?

have not had a chance this week to look into it but mainly the next steps are national and international branch support( most likely a seperate image for each?), how to setup the docker on the servers in way that has minimal impact on the current process

I've unticked Andy and I, just because I don't think we're needed to review this yet. If I'm wrong please add us back.
