Ignore upper-bounds on Requires-Python (#4086)

## Summary

This PR modifies our `Requires-Python` handling to treat
`Requires-Python` as a lower bound. There's extensive discussion around
this in https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/4022 and the references
linked therein. I think it's an experiment worth trying. Even in my own
small projects, I'm running into issues whereby I'm being "forced" to
add a `<4` upper bound to my `Requires-Python` due to these caps.

Separately, we should explore adding a mechanism that's distinct from
`Requires-Python` to enable users to declare a supported range for
locking.

Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/4022.
