- add `uv` to dependencies: saves builder(s) from manually having to manage a venv for python build dependencies
- when building wheels, pip automatically creates the environment with those dependencies, so no need for uv
- when running simply `make ENABLE_PYOSYS=1`, this is not the case. people attempting to `pip3 install --upgrade pybind11 cxxheaderparser` to add it to their system packages will be met with a scare message about "breaking system packages"
- update installation instructions to drop boost and add uv instead
- update ci scripts to use `macos-15[-intel]` (`macos-13` sunset in early december)
- Rewrite all Python features to use the pybind11 library instead of boost::python.
Unlike boost::python, pybind11 is a header-only library that is just included by Pyosys code, saving a lot of compile time on wheels.
- Factor out as much "translation" code from the generator into proper C++ files
- Fix running the embedded interpreter not supporting "from pyosys import libyosys as ys" like wheels
- Move Python-related elements to `pyosys` directory at the root of the repo
- Slight shift in bridging semantics:
- Containers are declared as "opaque types" and are passed by reference to Python - many methods have been implemented to make them feel right at home without the overhead/ambiguity of copying to Python and then copying back after mutation
- Monitor/Pass use "trampoline" pattern to support virual methods overridable in Python: virtual methods no longer require `py_` prefix
- Create really short test set for pyosys that just exercises basic functionality
