Pex

This release fixes a long-standing bug in resolve checking. Previously,
only resolve dependency chains where checked, but not the resolved
distributions that satisfied the input root requirements.

In addition, the 2.24.2 release included a wheel with no compression
(~11MB instead of ~3.5MB). The Pex wheel is now fixed to be compressed.

* Fix resolve check to cover dists satisfying root reqs. (2610)
* Fix build process to produce a compressed `.whl`. (2609)

This release fixes a long-standing bug in "YOLO-mode" foreign platform
speculative wheel builds. Previously if the speculatively built wheel
had tags that did not match the foreign platform, the process errored
pre-emptively. This was correct for complete foreign platforms, where
all tag information is known, but not for all cases of abbreviated
platforms, where the failure was overly aggressive in some cases. Now
foreign abbreviated platform speculative builds are only rejected when
there is enough information to be sure the speculatively built wheel
definitely cannot work on the foreign abbreviated platform.

* Accept more foreign `--platform` "YOLO-mode" wheels. (2607)

This release fixes `pex3 cache prune` handling of cached Pips.
Previously, performing a `pex3 cache prune` would bump the last access
time of all un-pruned cached Pips artificially. If you ran
`pex3 cache prune` in a daily or weekly cron job, this would mean Pips
would never be pruned.

* Fix `pex3 cache prune` handling of cached Pips. (2589)

This release adds `pex3 cache prune` as a likely more useful Pex cache
management command than the existing `pex3 cache purge`. By default
`pex3 cache prune` prunes any cached items not used for the last 2
weeks and is likely suitable for use as a daily cron job to keep Pex
cache sizes down. The default age of 2 weeks can be overridden by
specifying `--older-than "1 week"` or `--last-access-before 14/3/2024`,
etc. See `pex3 cache prune --help` for more details.

* Support `pex3 cache prune --older-than ...`. (2586)

This release adds support for drawing requirements from
[PEP-735][PEP-735] dependency groups when creating PEXes or lock files.
Groups are requested via `--group <name><project dir>` or just
`--group <name>` if the project directory is the current working
directory.

* Add support for PEP-735 dependency groups. (2584)

[PEP-735]: https://peps.python.org/pep-0735/

This release adds support for `--pip-version 24.3.1`.

* Add support for `--pip-version 24.3.1`. (2582)
