Reason for this request

The currently used version is almost 3 years old: https://pypi.org/project/executing/0.8.3/

Python 3.11 is only supported in executing version 1.1.0, and Python 3.12 is only supported in executing version 2.0.1. This caused a lot of complaints in gruns/icecream#79 and I was constantly confused about why people kept reporting using an ancient version of executing, I thought that keeping the conda forge up to date was enough and didn't realise that Anaconda pinned versions.

executing 1.0.0 also fixed a significant source of problems with formatting tracebacks in IPython which again lots of people have complained about in ipython/ipython#13598 and people aren't getting that fix.

There's no known reason not to use the latest version, and building should be straightforward as it's just Python.
