Add an experimental JSON format for METADATA and WHEEL files in the uv
build backend to have a reference what it would look like and to
demonstrate that the actual change is just a few lines, how much easier
it is than the existing email header format.
The change is overwhelmingly adding the preview feature as it's the
first preview item in the build backend, writing the actual JSON is only
a couple of lines.

We shouldn't link to PyPI, and dropping the workspace-level
documentation link should mean that we get the auto-generated `docs.rs`
links.
## Summary
Resolves#8417
I've just begun learning procedural macros, so this PR is more of a
proof of concept. It's still a work in progress, and I welcome any
assistance or feedback.
## Summary
This PR declares and documents all environment variables that are used
in one way or another in `uv`, either internally, or externally, or
transitively under a common struct.
I think over time as uv has grown there's been many environment
variables introduced. Its harder to know which ones exists, which ones
are missing, what they're used for, or where are they used across the
code. The docs only documents a handful of them, for others you'd have
to dive into the code and inspect across crates to know which crates
they're used on or where they're relevant.
This PR is a starting attempt to unify them, make it easier to discover
which ones we have, and maybe unlock future posibilities in automating
generating documentation for them.
I think we can split out into multiple structs later to better organize,
but given the high influx of PR's and possibly new environment variables
introduced/re-used, it would be hard to try to organize them all now
into their proper namespaced struct while this is all happening given
merge conflicts and/or keeping up to date.
I don't think this has any impact on performance as they all should
still be inlined, although it may affect local build times on changes to
the environment vars as more crates would likely need a rebuild. Lastly,
some of them are declared but not used in the code, for example those in
`build.rs`. I left them declared because I still think it's useful to at
least have a reference.
Did I miss any? Are their initial docs cohesive?
Note, `uv-static` is a terrible name for a new crate, thoughts? Others
considered `uv-vars`, `uv-consts`.
