Remove Flux Dependency

The package can be used for all kinds of ML libraries not only Flux. I use it with Lux for example as well. However, it has Flux.jl as a dependency that it will always install. From a quick look over the code the dependency on Flux is only relevant for the Schedulers struct.

If the dependency there is really necessary, one could rewrite this as an extension module that is only loaded when Flux is loaded as well.

I could make a PR for this, but this would also make Julia 1.9 a requirement. What do you think?

That would be greatly appreciated. Go for it!
