Enforce python formatting
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Now that we are enforcing c++ formatting rules, maybe it's time to think about Python formatting as well.
Describe the solution you'd like
Programs that are widely used and do this are
- Ruff: https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/
- Black: https://github.com/psf/black
Note Ruff would have caught the issue about forgetting to import os that triggered https://github.com/LDMX-Software/ldmx-sw/releases/tag/v4.0.3 and https://github.com/LDMX-Software/ldmx-sw/commit/640596b1541437faf1d9429901696de132127436
(sorry about that btw!)
Describe alternatives you've considered
Keep it the wild west!
I would love to include python formatting! It also opens the door to defining our own formatting rules for things like config scripts which could be helpful.
Personally, I like ruff since I'm a Rust fan girlie but black is also something I've used before and is pretty good.

hahaha! Sure if you have experience with ruff let's just do that!
