I chose ruff because it's one of the best and fastest linter at the moment, it is still maintained and has an important community.

I tested the configuration using a dummy modification of main.py and a clean installation of the repository, seems to work fine

Hi @jonperron I added a couple of suggestions:

• Remove format pre-commit hook (we can deal with formatting in a separate issue, see Apply code formatting #429)
• Add some useful commands to the Makefile (e.g. make lint, make lint-fix)
• Add a CI step to run the lint
• Apply the automatic fixes supported by ruff, and add ignores for all other failing lint steps
• Update README and CONTRIBUTING

The CI linting step now passes, but obviously lots of linting is ignored for this to work. To fully fix, we need to go through the ignores, uncomment them, and then fix the linting issues.

Note that there is also the question of formatting. It would be great to run ruff format over the whole project too, but this can wait (see linked issue on the topic).
