ci: standardize Python execution across workflows and improve venv caching robustness

- Changed all Python/pip commands to use `venv/bin/python -m` pattern instead of direct tool invocation or source activation
  - package-tests.yml: pip, mypy, black, pytest now use `venv/bin/python -m`
  - python-tests.yml: ruff, pip, pytest now use `venv/bin/python -m` or `venv/bin/pytest`
  - staking-tests.yml: pytest now uses `venv/bin/pytest` instead of `python3 -m pytest`
- Added missing dependencies to workflow
