Build ruff on Alpine s390x

[raspbeguy]

Hello, I wish to fix ruff package on Alpine Linux. Currently the package won't build on s390x arch because of a dependancy that won't update its own dependancies. I'm talking about clearscreen which uses an old version on nix which contains a bug for s390x. The bug has been patched on nix but clearscreen seems almost abandoned.

Here is the issue watchexec/clearscreen#20

I don't know rust so I can't contribute, but anyway I think it would be wise to get rid of a dependancy in such state.

The bug has been patched on nix but clearscreen seems almost abandoned.

It seems that the package is still maintained. The maintainer commented on watchexec/clearscreen#20 with that they're happy to upgrade the nix package once the PR builds successfully.

That's why I think the best forward is to help push the upgrade PR forward rather than vendoring, forking or replacing

An alternative is to use something like crossterm but its clear command but that comes with a lot of functionality that we don't need today.

I'll try to fix the upstream issue: watchexec/clearscreen#21

I was able to fix the issue in clearscreen, and the maintainer kindly cut a release. I've upgraded Ruff's version in #10869.
