Add Python bindings build using bzlmod (google#1764)

* Add a bzlmod Python bindings build

Uses the newly started `@nanobind_bazel` project to build nanobind
extensions. This means that we can drop all in-tree custom build defs
and build files for nanobind and the C++ Python headers.

Additionally, the temporary WORKSPACE overwrite hack naturally goes away
due to the WORKSPACE system being obsolete.

* Bump ruff -> v0.3.1, change ruff settings

The latest minor releases incurred some formatting and configuration
changes, this commit rolls them out.
