Add Support for Script Execution via Configuration File

[CucumberKing]

Could you introduce an option in uv to allow running scripts defined in a configuration file, similar to the functionality provided by PDM and Rye.

Background

Both PDM and Rye offer functionality to define and run custom scripts directly from their configuration files. This feature simplifies the development process by enabling the execution of common tasks (e.g., testing, building, deploying) through a unified command interface.

For example:

• PDM uses the [tool.pdm.scripts] section in the pyproject.toml file to define scripts.
• Rye allows script definitions under [tool.rye.scripts] in the pyproject.toml.

Proposal

Add similar functionality to uv that allows users to define scripts in a configuration file (e.g., pyproject.toml) and execute them via a simple uv command.

Benefits

• Consistency: Users familiar with tools like PDM and Rye will have a consistent experience.
• Convenience: Simplifies the process of running repetitive tasks, improving developer productivity.
• Automation: Encourages the automation of common project tasks, reducing manual overhead.

Suggested Implementation

1. Configuration: Introduce a section in the pyproject.toml (or equivalent config file) under [tool.uv.scripts] where users can define scripts.

   Example:

   [tool.uv.scripts]
   test = "pytest tests/"
   build = "python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel"

2. Command Execution: Add a command to uv that can execute these scripts. For example:

   uv run test
   uv run build
