Replace flake8 with ruff

What does this MR do and why?

Describe in detail what your merge request does and why.

Ruff supports over 500 lint rules and can be used to replace Flake8 (plus dozens of plugins), isort, pydocstyle, yesqa, eradicate, pyupgrade, and autoflake, all while executing (in Rust) tens or hundreds of times faster than any individual tool.

We use ruff --format=gitlab to rapidly provide intuitive feedback to contributors.
