Add Python dependency

Recipe IDorg.openrewrite.python.AddDependency
Artifactorg.openrewrite:rewrite-python

Add a dependency to a Python project. Supports pyproject.toml (with scope/group targeting), requirements.txt, and Pipfile. For pyproject.toml, uv.lock, poetry.lock, and pdm.lock are regenerated natively without executing the package manager. For Pipfile, Pipfile.lock is regenerated natively by consulting the project's package index over the network. Not safe to use as a precondition: invokes the package manager or the network and publishes per-project state shared with other dependency recipes.
