Fully define dependencies for async support via optional dependency group #1472

@wevonosky

Description

@wevonosky

The current docs suggest adding aiohttp as a dependency to create an async app, but this creates a direct dependency on aiohttp for consumers of slack-bolt on what is is really a transitive dependency for the consumer of slack-bolt. This is especially important because this leaves it to consumers to find compatible versions of slack-bolt and aiohttp without the aide of a package manager.

slack-bolt should define an optional dependency group and include aiohttp so that consumers of this library don't need to maintain a dependency on a transitive. Consumers would be able to uv add slack-bolt[async] for example to include the optional dependencies.
