Manage dependencies clash with gql, request-toolbelt and urllib3

[KatKatKateryna]

Example user issue: https://speckle.community/t/qgis-graphql-error/6154/11 (another issue with the same combo of libraries https://speckle.community/t/unable-to-install-speckle-qgis-on-m1-mac/5810/6)

Cause:
The latest releases of the two libraries (request-toolbelt and urllib3) are incompatible, as reported here https://stackoverflow.com/a/76177575
gql library that specklepy is using is relying on requests and requests-toolbelt.
Although universal python installer ensures specific version of every module (e.g. urllib3<=1.26.16), some software (e.g. QGIS) imports request library from the original Python setup (probably imported before Speckle connector is loaded) with possibly incompatible version.

To do:
Look into the use of gql module relying on request-toolbelt, which is then relying on urllib3.

More details:

• gql library fixed the issue by restricting to urllib3<2.0
• request-toolbelt released 1.0.0 to support urllib 2.x
