Speculative: `--require-venv` by default

See original GitHub issue

This is somewhat of an offshoot from #1668, PEP 668 and a bunch more issues around the way pip interacts with the system.

One somewhat disruptive way we can handle this, that is roughly in the same order of magnitude as #9140, is requiring a virtualenv to be active to install things.

This means that we’d need to add in --no-require-venv (oh, I think we have that already).

Agreed. Radical suggestion, maybe we make it a Linux1 only thing?2

Even on Linux there are many ways to install a standalone Python beyond Conda - from building Python from source to various distributions (e.g., Enthought Distribution Manager, ActiveState Python). And then Nix, Spack, etc.

Rather than try to detect a conda env, it’d be better to turn this around: refuse only when one sees a system Python.
