This is a follow-up to cbe1671104
I changed `apt-get` arguments for x86_64 glibc builds,
but forgot to change it for x86_64 musl, aarch64 glibc and aarch64 musl.
Because of this, `upload-wheels` task failed with a message:
```
The virtual environment was not created successfully because ensurepip is not
available. On Debian/Ubuntu systems, you need to install the python3-venv
package using the following command.
apt install python3.11-venv
You may need to use sudo with that command. After installing the python3-venv
package, recreate your virtual environment.
```
This commit solves the "error: externally-managed-environment"
which started appearing since Debian 12 release.
`debian` is used as an Docker image to run devpi.

situations, it catches quite some errors with comparable few effort.

get_provider_update_timestamp() for exactly that purpose - it is checked manually by some dev and
updated from time to time, usually before a release.

instead of last run. while that seem to be more on-purpose, we cannot even do an “empty” database
update to update the known date.

remove that function and replace it by get_last_release_timestamp that is then updated by
./scripts/set_core_version.py - the result of that is reviewed manually anyway, so that seems to be
a good place (i prefer manual review here and mistrust further automation as also dev or ci clocks
may be wrong :)
`install_python_bindings.py` was not used by CI
and scripts, except for `scripts/run-python-test.sh`
which only used it to invoke `cargo`.
Instead of using an additional script,
run cargo directly.
The documentation is updated to remove
references to `install_python_bindings.py`.
The section "Installing bindings from source"
was in fact incorrect as it suggested
running `tox --devenv` first and only then
compiling the library with `install_python_bindings.py`.
Now it explicitly says to run cargo first
and then install the package without using `tox`.
`tox` is still used for running the tests
and setting up development environment.
cargo-zigbuild is replaced with a simple zig-cc wrapper.
cargo-zigbuild still tries to use i386-linux-musl triple,
while in zig 0.11 x86-linux-musl should be used [1].
This also gives us more control over compilation flags used
and prevents changes due to cargo-zigbuild upgrades,
as its version was not pinned.

<https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/13101>
scripts/update-provider-database.sh checks out the provider database
and updates data.rs file,
making it easier to update.
CI uses this script to check that checked in data.rs
corresponds to the provider database repository.
