Checks

[X] I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
[X] I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pixi, using pixi --version.

Reproducible example

[dependencies]
python = "~=3.9.0"

[pypi-dependencies]
colorama = "~=5.0"

Issue description

During the resolution phase for pixi install it will fail and print a hint

hint: colorama was requested with a pre-release marker (e.g., colorama>=5.0,<6.dev0), but pre-releases weren't enabled (try:
      `--prerelease=allow`)

This hint (--prerelease=allow ) is not present in pixi install so it fail with following error:

Expected behavior

Hide the tip or allow passing --prerelease=allow downstream from pixi to uv

I ran into this issue trying to install arcade, because they depend on a prerelease of pyglet, see https://github.com/pythonarcade/arcade/issues/2358

Would be great if you could support installing such packages with pixi.
