python bindings for valkey, forked from redis.

one notable difference I see from redis is that you can install with libvalkey to autmatically get faster parsing support.

│ For faster performance, install valkey with libvalkey support, this provides a compiled response parser, and for most cases requires zero code changes. By default, if libvalkey >= 2.3.2 is available, valkey-py will attempt to use it for response parsing.

```
pip install "valkey[libvalkey]"
```
