* Build free-threaded wheels, disable limited API there

Co-authored-by: Min RK <151929+minrk@users.noreply.github.com>

* Try installing libffi-dev on Linux

It's faling due to lack of includes. Presumably because the lack of cffi
wheels.

* Revert "Try installing libffi-dev on Linux"

Does not work.

* Merge

* Actually build FT

* support the free-threaded build of Python 3.14 (#93)

* support the free-threaded build of Python 3.14

* attempt to get 3.14t CI to run

* Add trove classifier

* Add changelog

* Add 3.14 trove classifier, too
