Not sure how these got missed when moving other things to `uv`, but this
should clean them up.
The bump to Python 3.12 is so that we can use `@override` with the
simple import from `typing`. This is needed by the newest versions of
`ty` to do type checking. Added the relevant `@override` annotations.

This removes the need to install any specific version of Python or
figure out how to configure it by instead asking users to install `uv`
and letting it manage Python. Among other advantages, `uv` is designed
to be fast enough to embed directly into our scripts.
We were already using this in `bench_runner.py` so that the script could
import non standard library dependencies. Moving to it for the rest of
our Python unifies the approach and will also enable dependencies
whenever needed.
I've left `github_tools` alone as it has special handling with its own
Bazel setup.
I've updated the contributing tools to explain the approach here.
The WORKSPACE file is deprecated; support is already off by default, and
it'll be removed in the next major bazel release. Our main dependency is
tree-sitter, and I'm trying to address that here.
We're currently using https://github.com/elliottt/rules_tree_sitter, but
that hasn't been updated in a couple years, meaning it lacks
MODULE.bazel support. In the registry, there's
https://registry.bazel.build/modules/tree-sitter-bazel, but this is only
the *parser* libraries of tree-sitter, not the *generator*. I'm using it
for that much, at least.
For the *generator*, which transforms grammar.js to parser.c/h, I'm just
requiring a non-hermetic invocation (i.e., people who want to work on it
will need to install tree-sitter; see the README.md updates). I tried
running it manually, but parser.c is about 600 KB; pre-commit rejects
files that large and I don't think an exception makes sense to override
for this (it'd probably also grow substantially if the grammar were
updated to cover more syntax). In order to make the non-hermetic call
not break "bazel build //..." for most developers, I'm marking most
targets in the package as manual.
Note, I did look long and hard at using `aspect_rules_js`/`rules_nodejs`
to invoke npm. This took a lot of time, and I have a commit that's
mostly working, except I hit a point where it uses `declare_symlink`
which we disallow for compatibility reasons (commit "Lots of work for
figuring out rule_js uses declare_symlink" on the PR). As a consequence,
I think we can't use the primary supported ways to have hermetic npm
calls.
Also, `treesitter` -> `tree_sitter` because it's generally called
`tree-sitter`, two words. We even had a `treesitter/src/tree_sitter`
directory so it's a bit inconsistent.
As far as bugs here, the parser library breaks bazel queries, e.g. the
error:
```
ERROR: Evaluation of query "somepath(//..., @llvm-project//third-party/unittest:gtest)" failed: preloading transitive closure failed: no such package '@@[unknown repo 'platforms' requested from @@tree-sitter-bazel+]//': The repository '@@[unknown repo 'platforms' requested from @@tree-sitter-bazel+]' could not be resolved: No repository visible as '@platforms' from repository '@@tree-sitter-bazel+'
```
I'm just excluding tree_sitter from queries where I can to work around
the error.
I'd kept these in to separate the bazel module update from the BUILD
file changes, then forgot about it. I think all of these can be cleanly
removed now. I think it's something we should clean up for consistency
with the bazel central repository names; I think it's best to reduce
that divergence.
llvm_zlib and llvm_zstd remain because of how llvm depends on the
particular names.
LLVM's bazel build has changed a bit, so this updates the tree for that.
LLVM is also moving `llvm::Optional` to match the standard API, but it seemed simpler to just switch to `std::optional`.

I'm treating my PR to mypy bazel integration as dead in the water. Abandoning that approach, this seems to work reasonably well as a replacement. It's actually a slightly newer version of mypy too -- the bazel integration was stuck on an old version.
Note I don't think we're losing much: we shouldn't be writing too much python.
Moves common script logic into utils.py (not a great name, but couldn't come up with better). This is in particular to make the buildifier.py script really trivial, allowing that pre-commit to be easily added. However, scripts have also been diverging on how we find bazel, so I'm trying to unify that.
The advantage of reimplementing buildifier's pre-commit is that (a) we can now run buildifier server-side, and (b) we can stop advising installing it manually. Then the only Linux-specific package manager is Cargo, which is only used for watchman, which is optional -- so stop highlighting Linux-specific package managers in the tool instructions.
