Fix lint errors in sdc.py; upgrade CI to Python 3.10-3.13 + typecheck; add pytest.ini

- Remove two unused variable assignments (best_tau, drift_norms) caught by ruff F841
- CI matrix now includes Python 3.13; add typecheck job; upload coverage on 3.11 only
- pytest.ini registers 'slow' marker to eliminate PytestUnknownMarkWarning
- All 229 tests pass, 0 warnings, lint clean
