Feature request to add charmcraft-specific versions of upstream craft-parts python plugins. Implemented via PR #1899 (Python and Poetry plugins) with docs in #1940 and a uv plugin in #2050. No further action needed.

Suggested action: close stale

Reason: The requested feature has been implemented: commit 8b748f3e (PR #1899) added charmcraft-specific Python and Poetry plugins under charmcraft/parts/plugins/, with docs added in #1940 and integration/unit tests present. The issue is 735 days old with no maintainer interaction beyond the Jira sync bot, and the feature is fully realized in the codebase.

Issue body

### What needs to get done Ensure that the `craft-parts` python plugins work as expected with a charm ### Why it needs to get done We don't really need our own special plugin if we properly use the upstream plugins.
