[SymForce] Use uv for requirements

Last I tried this, uv didn't support solving for python versions other
than the running interpreter; now they do (except that dependencies that
don't have wheels need to get built with an actual Python interpreter).

I previously had a GitHub action to build requirements for all Python
versions; it was super fast (<1m) and kinda convenient, it'd just make a
PR.  I think I like just having the requirements test do it now though,
now that it's possible to do that way.
