Use python-bundled sqlite3 library instead of py-sqlite3

Might need a bit of testing on your machine. Hatch is making things a bit funny here, but it should work.

AFAICS the python shipped with FreeBSD doesn't have sqlite3 bundled. I see _sqlite3 in the DISABLED_EXTENSIONS list in the port makefiles, and:

markj@xinde> python
Python 3.11.15 (main, Apr  7 2026, 01:08:37) [Clang 19.1.7 (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git llvmorg-19.1.7-0-gcd7080 on freebsd16
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sqlite3

One can install py-sqlite3 to get the "builtin" module, but the intent was to try and minimize system dependencies. So, if we do this we should update the README to list required packages.

py-sqlite3 still needs the system dependency to build successfully, since it's building from source using /usr/local/include/sqlite.h.

I think this still adheres to the "lower dependencies" goal. Most non-freebsd distributions will include it in their python packages, since there usually isn't a choice in customization like there is in the Ports collection. And on FreeBSD, we will still need to install something (databases/py-sqlite3 port vs pysqlite3 with built-from-source components in PyPI).

Ok, then do you mind updating the README as well?

The alternative approach I took in #27 was to document the need for installing py311-sqlite3. This is the package that comes with cpython.

I took @ngie-eign's commit, thanks.
