Subject: [PATCH] chore: clean up .gitignore
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Add .venv/ — was completely unignored; would have been committed
  if anyone ran `uv sync` and then `git add .`.
- Add __pycache__/ and *.pyc — Python bytecode wasn't ignored. The
  prior `.__pycache__` entry (note the leading dot) was a typo that
  matched no real Python output directory.
- Generalize examples.egg-info/ → *.egg-info/ so a rename of the
  project doesn't quietly reintroduce the leak.
- Drop the duplicate `.env` (it was listed twice).
- Group the new Python-artifact entries under a single comment.
