tools/make_pip: Use venv when invoking pip
Recent Ubuntu versions (24.04+) disallow pip by default when
installing packages. The recommended approach is to use a virtual
environment (venv) instead.
Because of this, "make pip" is failing on such versions.
To prepare CI container migration to Ubuntu 24.04, use a venv in the
make_pip script.
