Feature Request

The current dependency solver can perform suboptimally for packages with many frequent releases creating long chains to explore. botocore in particular seems to be problematic and can produce dead ends in the graph of possible package combinations that poetry takes a long time to resolve out of.

See:

• Poetry update never finishes resolve and Poetry show --outdated hangs #832 (comment)
• Resolver appears to run forever #7858
• Hang when trying to resolve dependencies for faust-large-message-serializer = "^2.0.1" #7875
• Inconsistent behavior with poetry add vs poetry install for ome-zarr package #7856

The workarounds for these are generally of the "pin package X" variety, which works well but doesn't make for the best user experience and adds requirements to a pyproject.toml that a developer doesn't necessarily care about. The documentation section on "why-is-the-dependency-resolution-process-slow" also suggest adding pins as a solution for speed up resolution.

Investigate improving the performance of the version solver in these cases, preferably without too much impact on non-pathologic cases.
