GEOPY-2911 - Migrate surface-apps to python 3.12

[Copilot]

Pull request overview

This PR migrates surface-apps to Python 3.12+ across packaging, documentation, CI, and conda-lock artifacts, aligning dependency pins with the newer runtime and updating related build metadata.

Changes:

• Raise minimum supported Python version to 3.12 (and add 3.13 matrices/lockfiles) across docs, CI, and packaging metadata.
• Update key dependency pins (e.g., numpy/scipy/pydantic/geoh5py/geoapps-utils) and refresh conda-lock outputs for 3.12/3.13.
• Adjust build/doc tooling (recipe build env override, Sphinx version handling, ReadTheDocs python version).
