refactor!: depend on and import autonerves (renamed from autoconf)

Update the pyproject dependency pins and all `import autoconf` / `from autoconf`
statements (including the config re-export block) to the renamed package
`autonerves`. Repo-name references ("PyAutoConf") are unchanged — they flip with
the GitHub repo rename in the coordinated cutover.

BREAKING CHANGE: this library now requires `autonerves` instead of `autoconf`.
CI resolves it from the same-named PyAutoConf branch (built as autonerves).
