This pull request introduces a quality assurance workflow to the project by adding automated linting with Ruff. It also provides a convenient Makefile command for running the linter locally and configures Ruff as a development dependency with custom settings.

Quality Assurance Automation:

• Added a GitHub Actions workflow (.github/workflows/qa.yml) to automatically run Ruff lint checks on pushes and pull requests to main and master branches.

Local Development Tools:

• Added a lint target to the Makefile for running Ruff lint checks locally via Poetry.

Dependency and Linter Configuration:

• Added Ruff as a dev dependency in pyproject.toml and configured it with custom linting rules, line length, and target Python version.
