Update jsonschema dependency to >= 4.18.0

[ogreyard]

I'd like to try the demo with pyairbyte within jupyterlab.
When installing the airbyte library, jsonschema is downgraded to 4.17.x
The more recent versions of jupyterlab require jsonschema>=4.18.0
Is there any chance you may update jsonschema to 4.18.x soon?

Does anyone plan to do the upgrade, or is it on the roadmap for the maintainers? I would give it a shot. I'm guessing I just need to replace all RefResolver occurrences with the referencing library and change the tests.

Yeah, I think this is a pretty important one. jsonschema 4.18.x was release in July 2023. Lots package dependency problems are caused by pinning to such an old dependency. Is there any evidence that the 4.18.x change was BC-breaking for airbyte-python-cdk? The release notes say that 4.18.x should be backwards compatible, save deprecation warnings.

Working on this here when I have a chance: https://github.com/jscheel/airbyte-python-cdk/pull/1/files

We will also get to this, and I’d be happy to support folks who are trying to update it now.

We have a project that would change how we work with manifest component schema in the next 2 months. It could be good time to do this as an infra layer change.
