Feature description

We are trying to draft support for using https://github.com/astral-sh/uv as a replacement for pip-tools in dependabot.

The reason for this is that uv is much faster and many projects have already started switching to it. UV is a pip-tools compatible replacement written in rust.

If we are lucky, it should be as easy as changing pip-compile --stuff for uv pip compile --stuff and adding uv as one of the python helpers requirements.
