use ruff for linting/formatting/sorting instead of black/flake8/isort

This will provide a performance boost, and it has most if not all the rules needed

Ruff is faster than the 3 replacements combined

I’m inclined to say this would need a community discussion on the Forum.

For what it’s worth, I would much prefer that we stick with community tools, rather than VC controlled alternatives.
Perhaps I’m alone in that concern. (I’d ask Adam’s take personally, and probably defer to that.)

Your opinion is always appreciated, this is just a suggestion, a recommendation, the first advantage we got is that if someone wants to ruff at some point, he will be able to see this ticket and get an answer

Duplicate of #34460.

Happy to discuss on forum.

(I don't think the VC control is a concern: compare with how Flake8 is now basically one person. I am concerned that Ruff is still technically beta and its docs mostly defer to other project docs, making it a bit hard to understand if you don't know or follow the history.)
