fix(deps): demote uv to recommended, remove dead pipx installer code

uv is only used in the fish-deps fish-from-source build path
(uv run --no-managed-python cargo install --path .) and is not required
by the config at runtime. All consumers degrade gracefully without it.

pipx appeared in the installer's method-building and execution switch
blocks but no catalog entry ever sets special=pipx, making both branches
permanently unreachable dead code. The docs listed pipx as install
priority #6 which was equally misleading.

- _fish_deps_catalog: change uv tier from req → rec
- _fish_deps_install: remove case pipx method-builder and
  special-pipx / special-pip execution cases
- docs/fish-config.md: move uv from Required to Recommended catalog
  entry with accurate description; drop pipx from install priority
