Add uninstallation steps for the tool in the documentation

[fervand1]

As an end user, it would be nice to also include uninstallation steps in the documentation or on pypi for windows specially if the tool is installed via the script irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex. On pip it is relatively easy with pip uninstall.

Seems reasonable!

Same issue here 👋

I initially installed uv by running curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh.

I realized I was behind on versions (v0.1.21) and noticed that uv self update was introduced in v0.1.23.

Since there were no explicit uninstallation instructions, and uv was installed as a standalone binary (not through Cargo, so cargo uninstall uv wasn't an option), I decided to manually uninstall it.

Here’s how I did it:

Clear the cache directory (optional, depending on your setup):

rm -rf $HOME/.cache/uv

Remove the uv binary

rm $HOME/.cargo/bin/uv

Then I ran the same install with curl, and now I have the self update capability. Life is great once again ✨
