supporting simple pylock.toml files (PEP 751)

[stonebig]

Wouldn't it be interesting for micropip to accept the pylock.toml format ?

As a "normalised freeze" use, (--no-deps, --requires-hashes) it's in theory simple:

• no resolution needed
• just checking hashes
• PEP-783 acceptance seems to invite to it

DIsclaimer:

• I'm only using pylock.toml generated per pip-26.1.1, exactly as discribed above.
• more complex use of pylock.toml that exist, may not fit for pyodide.

Yes, I was thinking to explore about pylock.toml (pyodide/pyodide#5617). I think the implementation can actually go to pyodide runtime to benefit both micropip and pyodide.loadPackage, but maybe we can start with implementing it in micropip.

Anyways, if you are interested, feel free to open a draft PR, and we can discuss more
