chore(main): enforce & provide improved code comments

[b-long]

This pull request focuses on improving code quality, documentation, and development tooling for the OpenTDF Python SDK. The main changes include enforcing stricter linting and docstring standards, updating development dependencies, and enhancing code documentation and structure across several modules.

Linting, Docstrings, and Tooling Improvements:

• Updated the pyproject.toml to enforce stricter linting rules, including pydocstyle and pydoclint, set the target Python version to 3.10, and added per-file docstring rule ignores for tests and generated code. [1] [2]
• Upgraded the ruff-pre-commit hook version in .pre-commit-config.yaml to v0.14.8.
• Changed the recommended VSCode extension from golang.go to charliermarsh.ruff to align with Python linting. (.vscode/extensions.json)

Code Documentation and Structure:

• Added or improved module-level and class-level docstrings for better clarity and compliance in files such as src/otdf_python/aesgcm.py, src/otdf_python/assertion_config.py, src/otdf_python/asym_crypto.py, and src/otdf_python/auth_headers.py. [1] [2] [3] [4]
• Standardized and clarified docstrings for methods and classes, particularly in cryptography-related modules and test configuration files. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19]

These changes collectively improve code maintainability, readability, and enforce consistent documentation practices throughout the codebase.

Summary of Changes

Hello @b-long, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request focuses on a maintenance update, specifically upgrading the version of the ruff-pre-commit hook used in the project's pre-commit configuration. This ensures that the latest version of the ruff linter is utilized for automated code quality checks before commits are made. It's important to note that despite the title, no direct changes to docstrings are present in this PR.

Highlights

• Dependency Update: The ruff-pre-commit hook version has been updated from v0.14.6 to v0.14.8 in the .pre-commit-config.yaml file.
• Title Discrepancy: The pull request title indicates 'improve docstrings', however, the actual changes only involve updating a linter version and do not directly modify any docstrings.

Code Review

This pull request updates the version of the ruff-pre-commit hook from v0.14.6 to v0.14.8. While keeping dependencies up-to-date is a good practice, the pull request title, "chore(main): improve docstrings", is misleading as the changes do not involve docstring improvements. To maintain a clear and accurate commit history, I recommend updating the title to more accurately reflect the changes, for example: chore: Bump ruff pre-commit hook to v0.14.8.

Code Review

This pull request introduces a significant improvement to the codebase by enabling more ruff linting rules, particularly for docstrings (pydocstyle), and applying the necessary fixes across the entire project. The changes are extensive, adding and reformatting docstrings to be compliant with PEP 257, which greatly enhances code clarity and maintainability. The updates to .pre-commit-config.yaml and pyproject.toml are well-structured and the gradual approach to enabling new rules is sensible. Overall, this is an excellent contribution to the project's quality. I have one minor suggestion for code simplification.
