Retry uv pip install on cargo-related transient failures

[potiuk]

Retry uv pip install commands in install_airflow_and_providers.py when failures
are cargo-related (.cargo in output), to handle transient build failures.

I'd recommend just installing Rust ahead of time rather than retrying the whole command? The failure modes for concurrent rustup installs are very confusing and it can leave you in a broken state that will not succeed on retry.

Tried it already - #64535 it however significantly increases the time of build of the images, But yeah, I might get back to that - I wanted to see if we can do it this way. Thanks for the hint @zanieb

Pull request overview

Adds retry logic around uv-based dependency installation during container/image builds to mitigate transient cargo/maturin build failures (workaround for astral-sh/uv#18801).

Changes:

• Introduces a Python retry helper wrapping uv pip install in scripts/in_container/install_airflow_and_providers.py.
• Adds a Bash retry wrapper used by the Docker image install scripts (and their inlined copies in Dockerfile/Dockerfile.ci).
• Updates uv.lock (timestamp plus additional dependency metadata/extras changes).

scripts/docker/install_airflow_when_building_images.sh	Adds run_uv_with_cargo_retry() and wraps uv sync / install invocations.
Dockerfile.ci	Updates the embedded /install_airflow_when_building_images.sh script to include the retry wrapper and use it.
Dockerfile	Same embedded script updates as Dockerfile.ci.

Closing in favour of #64535 - we will have to bite the bullet of longer image builds.
