feat(venv): add relocatable flag (#5515)
## Summary

Adds a `--relocatable` CLI arg to `uv venv`. This flag does two things:

* ensures that the associated activation scripts do not rely on a
hardcoded
absolute path to the virtual environment (to the extent possible; `.csh`
and
  `.nu` left as-is)
* persists a `relocatable` flag in `pyvenv.cfg`.

The flag in `pyvenv.cfg` in turn instructs the wheel `Installer` to
create script
entrypoints in a relocatable way (use `exec` trick + `dirname $0` on
POSIX;
use relative path to `python[w].exe` on Windows).

Fixes: #3863

## Test Plan

* Relocatable console scripts covered as additional scenarios in
existing test cases.
* Integration testing of boilerplate generation in `venv`.
* Manual testing of `uv venv` with and without `--relocatable`

Reimplementation of wheel installing in rust. Supports both classical venvs and monotrail.

There are simple python bindings:

from install_wheel_rs import LockedVenv

locked_venv = LockedVenv("path/to/.venv")
locked_venv.install_wheel("path/to/some_tagged_wheel.whl")

and there's only one function: install_wheels_venv(wheels: List[str], venv: str), where wheels is a list of paths to wheel files and venv is the location of the venv to install the packages in.

See monotrail for benchmarks.
