Code Review

This pull request upgrades urllib3 to fix security vulnerabilities. However, the proposed version urllib3>=2.5.0 is incompatible with the Python 3.8 environment targeted by test_requirements/requirements_38_optional.txt. Specifically, urllib3 2.x requires Python 3.10+ and conflicts with the pinned requests==2.25.1 dependency which requires urllib3<1.27. The change should be reverted and a compatible, secure version from the urllib3 1.x series should be used instead.

[gemini-code-assist]

The upgrade to urllib3>=2.5.0 introduces an incompatible version for this Python 3.8 environment, which will break the dependency installation. urllib3 v2.x requires Python 3.10 or newer, and conflicts with the pinned requests==2.25.1 dependency (line 1) which requires urllib3<1.27. To fix the security vulnerability while maintaining compatibility, pin urllib3 to a secure version from the 1.x series. Revert this change.
