build: find Python syntax errors in dependencies

As discussed in
#30129 (comment), when
we vendor in code, we own the Syntax Errors in that code.  This PR adds
The `.flake8` config file at the root of this repo puts blinders on the
linting of our dependencies so this test disables that file before
linting.

fixup: allow_failures until dependencies pass
