Migrating to pyproject.toml, using ruff for QA, and switching to UV for installations

[ak-gupta]

Description

In this PR, I have made one major functionality change to the package. Instead of using pip install, the package will now use uv pip install. In addition to the functionality change, I have migrated the package from setup.cfg to pyproject.toml and towards ruff as the QA tool of choice. This change is also reflected in our GitHub Actions.

I will run some tests to validate the runtime differences between pip and uv. EDIT: uv saves ~25 seconds for a package as small as edgetest.

Everything LGTM, I think we should just update pre-commit to use ruff instead of flake8/black/isort as part of this.
