No pip installed

@GordonBeeming Any plans to add support for/install pip on the images?

I noticed python3 is installed, but pip is not.

I would like to install Agent Package Manager (APM), which is installed by running pip.

It makes sense to add 😊, i'll get on it

python3 was only present transitively and there was no pip, so pip-distributed tools like APM couldn't be installed. Fixed in #122 (merged as 70e3a73): the base system-packages layer now installs python3, python3-pip, python3-venv and pipx, so every image variant gets them.

Since the images are Debian 12 (PEP 668), install CLI tools with pipx install apm rather than a bare pip install — ~/.local/bin is already on PATH, so the tool is reachable immediately. pip still works inside a venv.

This ships with the next image build. @NenoLoje give it a go once it's published and let me know if APM installs cleanly for you.

It works like a charm! Thanks a ton, @GordonBeeming!

PS: For everyone else trying this, remember it's pipx install apm-cli (not just "apm").
