package version identifier is limited to 18446744073709551615

It seems that UV doesn't support version identifiers great than 18446744073709551615. I don't believe https://peps.python.org/pep-0440/ has this restriction and assume it is a function of using Int64 to parse the build number.

To reproduce simply add a dependency with a dev version identifier > 18446744073709551615.

Internally we are using a concatenation of the hash of a branch name and the git commit to version development packages. We don't use the local identifier syntax because google won't let us install those in the cloud-composer (even though we use a private artifactory) :(

It's hard to say if we should support larger integers. I assume it will come with more complexity and performance degradation. Curious to see what @BurntSushi thinks though, as he's the expert on this.
