`python-version: 3.x` resolves to 3.14 now. Many of the Zephyr build requirements have no 3.14 wheels yet, so `west packages pip --install` builds 16 of them from source (grpcio_tools, ruamel.yaml.clib, esptool, docopt, ...) in every zephyr-cp board job: 303 s, against 33 s for the same command in the zephyr-tests job, which already pins 3.13. Pin 3.13 for the zephyr-cp port only; the other ports install their Python dependencies from the cached venv and are left on 3.x. A wide PR runs 29 zephyr-cp board jobs, about 4.5 minutes each.

The zephyr-cp board jobs spend about 5 minutes each in west packages pip --install. The cause is the Python version: python-version: 3.x now resolves to 3.14, and for 3.14 several of the Zephyr build requirements have not published wheels yet. A wheel is a prebuilt package that pip only has to unpack; without one, pip downloads the source and compiles it on the runner, which for C extensions such as grpcio_tools takes minutes. With 3.13 the wheels exist, so the same install is a download.
