CDP Mode: Patch 63

• Add command-line shortcuts for Pure CDP Mode (sb_cdp) --> This resolves https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/issues/4008
• Improve certain types of clicks in CDP Mode --> May improve clicking of <div> and <input> elements
• Refresh Python dependencies --> This resolves https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/issues/4009
• Update CDP Mode examples

For Pure CDP Mode (sb_cdp), we're adding the ability to set options via command-line args. Here's what to expect, with examples:

:::zsh
python SCRIPT.py --incognito
python SCRIPT.py --guest
python SCRIPT.py --headless
python SCRIPT.py --ad-block
python SCRIPT.py --agent="MY NEW USER AGENT"
python SCRIPT.py --geolocation="(31.774390, 35.222450)"
python SCRIPT.py --timezone=="Asia/Kolkata"
python SCRIPT.py --platform="MacIntel"
python SCRIPT.py --lang="fr"
python SCRIPT.py --proxy="USER:PASS@SERVER:PORT"
python SCRIPT.py --binary-location="/Applications/Brave Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/Brave Browser"

There are a few additional options on Linux, such as --gui/--headed, (which overrides the default Linux headless mode). And there's --xvfb on Linux for the special virtual display (which may already be set by default if not using other options).

This aims to simplify option-handling, as you will no longer need to modify a script itself in order to change how it runs.

Note that all these options were already available via method args passed into sb_cdp.Chrome(). Method args always take priority over command-line options. For example, if you set the binary_location / browser_executable_path via method arg, but set a different one on the command-line, then the method arg takes priority.
