## Summary
This PR gets rid of the `requirements.in` and `requirements.txt` files
in the `scripts/fuzz-parser` directory, and replaces them with
`pyproject.toml` and `uv.lock` files. The script is renamed from
`fuzz-parser` to `py-fuzzer` (since it can now also be used to fuzz
red-knot as well as the parser, following
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/pull/14566), and moved from the
`scripts/` directory to the `python/` directory, since it's now a
(uv)-pip-installable project in its own right.
I've been resisting this for a while, because conceptually this script
just doesn't feel "complicated" enough to me for it to be a full-blown
package. However, I think it's time to do this. Making it a proper
package has several advantages:
- It means we can run it from the project root using `uv run` without
having to activate a virtual environment and ensure that all required
dependencies are installed into that environment
- Using a `pyproject.toml` file means that we can express that the
project requires Python 3.12+ to run properly; this wasn't possible
before
- I've been running mypy on the project locally when I've been working
on it or reviewing other people's PRs; now I can put the mypy config for
the project in the `pyproject.toml` file
## Test Plan
I manually tested that all the commands detailed in
`python/py-fuzzer/README.md` work for me locally.

## Summary
This PR adds a basic README for the `ruff_python_parser` crate and
updates the CONTRIBUTING docs with the fuzzer and benchmark section.
Additionally, it also updates some inline documentation within the
parser crate and splits the `parse_program` function into
`parse_single_expression` and `parse_module` which will be called by
matching against the `Mode`.
This PR doesn't go into too much internal detail around the parser logic
due to the following reasons:
1. Where should the docs go? Should it be as a module docs in `lib.rs`
or in README?
2. The parser is still evolving and could include a lot of refactors
with the future work (feedback loop and improved error recovery and
resilience)

## Summary
This PR replaces the current parser generated from LALRPOP to a
hand-written recursive descent parser.
It also updates the grammar for [PEP
646](https://peps.python.org/pep-0646/) so that the parser outputs the
correct AST. For example, in `data[*x]`, the index expression is now a
tuple with a single starred expression instead of just a starred
expression.
Beyond the performance improvements, the parser is also error resilient
and can provide better error messages. The behavior as seen by any
downstream tools isn't changed. That is, the linter and formatter can
still assume that the parser will _stop_ at the first syntax error. This
will be updated in the following months.
For more details about the change here, refer to the PR corresponding to
the individual commits and the release blog post.
## Test Plan
Write _lots_ and _lots_ of tests for both valid and invalid syntax and
verify the output.
