Bookworm/Pi5 Compatibility: Upgrade to latest boilerplate, port to gpiod

[Gadgetoid]

Testing

If you're a Bookworm / Pi 5 user running into virtual environment issues, you can try this library like so:

git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/automation-hat -b repackage
cd automation-hat
./install.sh --unstable

The ./install.sh script will create a pimoroni virtual environment that's shared between our products. (or use your existing venv if you've already activated one.)

For the reasons behind these changes and other information, see:

• Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm + Pep 668 boilerplate-python#13
• Migration to Pi 5 / Bookworm Progress boilerplate-python#16

Tested

• Outputs
• Inputs
