The environment marker platform_python_implementation should be changed to python_implementation, which is the correct marker name in setuptools. The corrected dependency specification would be:
"uvloop>=0.15.1; sys_platform != 'win32' and (sys_platform != 'cygwin' and python_implementation != 'PyPy')"
This ensures proper compatibility checking when the package is installed.

Pull Request Overview
This PR adds optional support for uvloop, an ultra-fast drop-in replacement for Python's built-in asyncio event loop. When uvloop is installed, Streamlit will automatically use it to improve event loop performance. This is a preparation step for PR #12772.
Key Changes:
- Automatic uvloop activation when installed (non-Windows platforms only)
- Graceful fallback to default event loop if uvloop is unavailable or fails to install
- Comprehensive test coverage for various scenarios (available, missing, Windows, running loop)
