 On my computer (which is twice as fast as most hosted CI runners!) running
 pylint takes 18 seconds, for the one check we use it for.

 In contrast, the same check with ruff takes 60ms.

 Running _every single ruff check_, which is flake8 and some of pylint and
 many more checks takes 290ms (or 1.5 seconds on single core).

 A minimal first step then is replacing pylint with ruff, but probably we
 should swap out flake8 as well.
