Subject: [PATCH] chore(deps): drop unused twine pin from
 requirements-testing.txt

twine is a publishing tool, not a test dependency, but it was pinned in
requirements-testing.txt, which is installed on every leg of the 3.9-3.14
CI matrix. Nothing under test/ or scripts/ imports it, so the pin only
cost install time in 18 jobs that never invoked it.

The pin was also inert where twine actually runs: pipeline/build.sh and
pipeline/build.ps1 do "pip install --upgrade twine" before
pipeline/publish.sh calls "twine upload", so the publish path already
resolved the latest twine regardless of the "== 6.*" pin.

Removing it also unblocks twine 7 (#1314), which raised its floor to
Python >= 3.10 and so could not be pinned in a file installed on the 3.9
matrix legs. The publish path is unaffected: the deadline wheel is
universal (py3-none-any), the GitHub release workflows upload via
pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish rather than twine, and the internal
CodeArtifact publish runs on Python 3.13.
