Adjust markers to match target Python version (#909)
## Summary

This PR ensures that when the user passes in `--python-version`, we
adjust the _markers_ to match the target version, thus forcing us to
select compatible wheels for the `--python-version`, rather than the
installed version.

## Context

Let's call Python 3.10 the "installed" environment and Python 3.12 the
"target" environment. For each version, we have _both_ a Python version
(to match against `Requires-Python`) and a set of tags (to match against
wheels).

The rules for resolution are as follows...

- For each package, for each version, we try to find the "best
candidate" for resolution and installation.
- We first look for a wheel that's compatible with the _target_
environment. This requires testing against both the `Requires-Python`
and the markers. (We won't have to build or run this code, so the
_installed_ version is irrelevant.) **(This PR corrects _this_ bullet --
previously, we validated against the _installed_ markers, rather than
the target markers.)**
- If we can't find a compatible wheel, we accept any _incompatible_
wheel as long as there's a source distribution. The source distribution
_must_ be compatible with the target environment. (We won't have to
build or run this code, so the _installed_ version is irrelevant.)
- If there are no wheels, then the source distribution must be
compatible with _both_ the installed and target environments, since we
need to build it.

This is all true for the top-level resolution. When we perform a
sub-resolution (when resolving the build dependencies of a source
distribution), we should _only_ use the installed environment, and
ignore the target environment, since we assume that the dependencies
will be the same in both environments once built -- so our goal is
"just" to build the distribution, without concern for which build
dependencies it uses.
