Attest package provenance (#12333)

Use the new build provenance support added in [build-and-inspect-python-package 2.5.0](https://github.com/hynek/build-and-inspect-python-package/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#250---2024-05-13).

More information: https://github.blog/2024-05-02-introducing-artifact-attestations-now-in-public-beta/

Tested also in pytest-dev/pytest-mock#431.

Note: even though it is technically necessary only for the `deploy` workflow, as the `test` workflow does not publish its packages, decided to always attest the provenance in both cases to avoid any surprises related to this (say a misconfiguration) when deploying.
