Subject: [PATCH] Fix wheel build for Debian 13 and Python 3.12 compatibility

Updates the install script to filter out incompatible tflite_runtime wheels for Python 3.12 on Debian 13, installs tflite-runtime or ai-edge-litert via pip, and adjusts the wheel build process accordingly. This ensures successful installation on newer Debian versions with Python 3.12+.
