fix(remote-dev): switch python3.11 source from deadsnakes PPA to uv
The deadsnakes PPA may not be reachable on every VM (corporate apt
proxy, Ubuntu derivatives that add-apt-repository misdetects, etc.).
`uv python install 3.11` works on any distro: it fetches a portable
python-build-standalone CPython into ~/.local/share/uv/python/, which
is manylinux-wheel-compatible.
Symlink the resulting binary to ~/.local/bin/python3.11 (already on
PATH from zprofile). Move the step to after `home-manager switch`
since uv comes from the nix profile.
