Subject: [PATCH] fix(settings): add AST compatibility for Python 3.12+

* Use `ast.Constant` as primary node for Python 3.8+
* Maintain backward compatibility with `ast.Num`, `ast.Str`, and `ast.NameConstant`
* Prevent crashes on Python 3.12 where legacy nodes were removed
* Add safe handling via `try/except AttributeError`
