Set `--system` by default when not using a virtual environment
Given the description of this option, and this being a CI tool, getting workflow errors is an unexpected out of the box experience.
WARNING: UV_SYSTEM_PYTHON=true is intended for use in continuous integration (CI) or containerized environments and should be used with caution, as modifying the system Python can lead to unexpected behavior.
Example error
error: No virtual environment found; run `uv venv` to create an environment, or pass `--system` to install into a non-virtual environment`
I think it's probably quite sensible to export UV_SYSTEM_PYTHON=true if not passing the uv-venv input, and it would more closely match the experience of pip when using actions/setup-python.
