Subject: [PATCH] ci: cut per-shard setup time in the pytest matrix (#6557)

Each of the four pytest shards spends ~84 s on setup before pytest
starts, and repeats all of it: pip resolves and installs ~108 packages
(~24 s, even with the pip cache hit), Playwright downloads Chromium and
the headless shell with no cache (~11 s), and three separate
apt-get update calls run.

- Install requirements with uv (astral-sh/setup-uv, pinned) and cache
  its downloads keyed on requirements.txt. uv resolves the same 108
  pins as pip for this requirements.txt.
- Cache ~/.cache/ms-playwright keyed on package-lock.json so a hit
  skips the browser downloads; --with-deps still installs system libs.
- Install FFmpeg and bubblewrap in one apt pass. The containment step
  keeps its bwrap probes unchanged.
- Add --durations=25 so the slowest tests per shard are visible; the
  shard planner only weights the slow marker, and shard times vary
  from 154 s to 296 s within one run.
