Open py-version range + harness gate for py3.14 backends (#379)

Prep for a future sub-interpreter (PEP 734
`concurrent.interpreters`) spawn backend per issue
#379 — land just the py-version range bump and the
test-harness error-gating; the backend itself comes
later.

Deats,
- bump `pyproject.toml` `requires-python` to
  `>=3.12, <3.15` and list the `3.14` classifier —
  the new stdlib `concurrent.interpreters` module
  only ships on 3.14
- `_testing.pytest.pytest_configure` wraps
  `try_set_start_method()` in a `pytest.UsageError`
  handler so an unsupported `--spawn-backend` on the
  running py-version prints a clean banner instead
  of a traceback

(cherry picked from commit d318f1f8f4)
(factored: kept only the pyproject + `_testing/pytest.py` parts of
 "Add `'subint'` spawn backend scaffold (#379)"; dropped
 tractor/spawn/_spawn.py + tractor/spawn/_subint.py)
