Improve 403 Forbidden error message to indicate package may not exist (#16353)
Fixes#16340
## Summary
Some package registries (PyTorch, corporate PyPI mirrors) return `403
Forbidden` when a package is not found, instead of `404 Not Found`. The
previous error message incorrectly suggested this was always an
authentication issue, causing confusion for users.
This PR updates the error hint to clarify that a 403 error could
indicate either missing authentication credentials OR that the package
doesn't exist on the index.
## Test Plan
- Updated existing snapshot test in `crates/uv/tests/it/edit.rs` to
reflect the new error message
- The change is purely a message improvement with no behavioral changes
## Changes
### Before
hint: An index URL (https://example.com/simple) could not be queried due
to a lack of valid authentication credentials (403 Forbidden).
### After
hint: An index URL (https://example.com/simple) returned a 403 Forbidden
error. This could indicate missing authentication credentials, or the
package may not exist on this index.
## Files Changed
- `crates/uv-resolver/src/pubgrub/report.rs` - Updated error message
- `crates/uv/tests/it/edit.rs` - Updated snapshot test expectation

help: If you want to add the package regardless of the failed resolution, provide the `--frozen` flag to skip locking and syncing.
