Adds a migration-guide entry noting ITK 6 raised the wrapped-Python floor from 3.10 to 3.11.

The floor is already enforced in code (ITK_WRAP_PYTHON_MINIMUM_VERSION 3.11 in CMake/ITKSetPython3Vars.cmake, which fails configure early on an older interpreter); this just documents it for downstream users. Salvaged from the now-closed #6667, where it had accumulated unrelated to that PR's topic.

Greptile Summary

This PR documents the Python version floor for ITK 6 wrapping. The main changes are:

  • Adds a migration-guide note that Python wrapping now requires Python 3.11 or newer.
  • Tells downstream users to use Python 3.11+ when building or installing wrapped ITK.
  • Notes that prebuilt itk wheels already target Python 3.11 and newer.

Confidence Score: 5/5

This documentation-only PR is safe to merge.

The migration-guide note matches the enforced ITK_WRAP_PYTHON_MINIMUM_VERSION 3.11 floor and stays concise under the repository prose guidance.

No files require special attention.

T-Rex T-Rex Logs

What T-Rex did

  • I reviewed the docs build log to verify the build completed successfully with EXIT_CODE: 0 and noted there were 64 warnings.
  • I inspected the generated HTML excerpt for the minimum-wrapped-python-raised-to-3-11 section to confirm the Python 3.11 requirement appears in the expected heading and text.
  • I checked the changed-file diagnostics log and confirmed the warnings are unrelated baseline issues, with no new warnings or errors specific to the Python 3.11 content.
