deps: migrate from httpx to httpx2 (pydantic's maintained fork)

[priya-sundaram-dev]

Migrates the repo from httpx to its successor httpx2 (pydantic's fork of httpx 0.28.1), as requested on #15081.

Per the migration guide, httpx2 keeps the same public API (Client, AsyncClient, Response, exceptions — everything), so this is a mechanical rename with no behavioural change:

What changed

• Dependencies (pyproject.toml): httpx>=0.28.1 → httpx2>=2.0.1 in both the project dependencies and the euler-validate group. (httpx2's numbering restarts at 2.0; 2.0.0 is the fork of httpx 0.28.1.)
• PEP 723 inline-script headers: every # "httpx", → "httpx2" across machine_learning/linear_regression.py, scripts/validate_solutions.py, and the web_programming/*.py scripts.
• Imports & call sites: every import httpx → import httpx2, and all httpx. references → httpx2. — including httpx2.TimeoutException / HTTPStatusError / HTTPError and the monkeypatch.setattr(httpx2, "get", ...) target in web_programming/test_fetch_github_info.py.
• git grep httpx is clean afterwards — no docs reference httpx, so nothing else to update.

Verification

• All 37 changed modules py_compile clean.
• web_programming/test_fetch_github_info.py passes against httpx2 2.12.0 (import httpx2; httpx2.get/Client/AsyncClient/TimeoutException/HTTPStatusError/HTTPError/Response all resolve).

Two things worth flagging

1. uv.lock also absorbs pre-existing pending updates. master already fails uv lock --check before this PR (a prior merge added qiskit to deps and dropped sphinx-pyproject without regenerating the lock), and uv lock can only emit a full resolution. So besides httpx→httpx2 / httpcore→httpcore2 (+ httpx2-jsfetch), the lock diff also shows qiskit/rustworkx/stevedore/dill/truststore added and natsort/sphinx-pyproject/dom-toml/domdf-python-tools removed. Happy to split that lock refresh into its own prerequisite PR if you'd rather this diff be httpx-only — just say the word.
2. One pre-existing Py2-syntax fix. fetch_well_rx_price.py had except httpx.HTTPError, ValueError: (Python-2 style, a SyntaxError on 3.x). Since that's the httpx error-handler line I was already editing, I parenthesised it to except (httpx2.HTTPError, ValueError): so the file compiles. (There's a second, unrelated Py2 except json...JSONDecodeError, KeyError: in instagram_crawler.py that I left alone as out of scope for this migration — happy to fix it in a follow-up.)
