pip install hatch fails on free-threaded build

This ends up coming down to the dependency on zstandard:

Failed to build zstandard

see indygreg/python-zstandard#231 for the zstandard issue.

It looks like zstandard is only used if you encounter a .tar.zst file. I'm not sure if there's an easy way to do this, but if it were an optional dependency then most users who don't need zstandard support could get past this issue.

This is a tough one, I'm going to see if the maintainer is willing to accept a contribution and release it.
