Bump pyobjc-core from 11.1 to 12.1

[dependabot]

Bumps pyobjc-core from 11.1 to 12.1.

Release notes

Sourced from pyobjc-core's releases.

v12.1

• #661: 12.0 incorrectly has support for Python 3.9 in packaging metadata.

• Update framework bindings for the macOS 26.1 SDK

• Instances of :type:bytearray can be used as the argument for a function or selector that expects a null-terminated C char array.

• Automatically disable KVO usage for subclasses of NSProxy defined in Python.

• Fix SystemError when calling objc.propertiesForClass(objc.objc_object).

• objc.classAddMethods no longer supports callable's whose __name__ attribute is a byte string.

• Clearer error messages when an entry in the methods added with objc.classAddMethod is invalid.

• Using objc.classAddMethods to add a method for which a custom IMP helper has been registered now works correctly (previously the default libffi IMP implementation was used in these cases), and likewise for using :funcsetattr to assign methods.

• It is no longer possible to use :func:objc.classAddMethods to override an existing method with an incompatible Objective-C signature, and likewise for using :func:setattr to do the same.

  It was already not possible to override a method from a super class with an incompatible Objective-C signature.

• It is now possible to use an :class:objc.objc_method instance in the method list argument for :func:objc.classAddMethod.

• -[OC_PythonObject copy] now actually copies the value if the value is not known to be immutable (such as subclasses of the builtin number types).

v12.0

• Drop support for Python 3.9, which will go out of support before PyObjC 3.12 is released.

• Added AVFAudio as a separate toplevel package, instead of keeping it merged in into AVFoundation.

  The package is included in the pyobjc-framework-AVFoundation distribution.

• Updated metadata for the macOS 26 SDK.
