793f72c06c feat: add support for poetry
New python dependencies are introduced by the memory mapping script.
Rather than add another `requirements.txt` utilise poetry. This is a
proper dependency management framework for Python. The two main upsides
of using poetry instead of the traditional requirements.txt are
maintainability and reproducibility.

Poetry provides a proper lock file for pinning dependencies, similar to
npm for JavaScript. This allows for separate environments (i.e. docs,
tools) to be created efficiently, and in a reproducible manner, wherever
the project is deployed.  Having dependencies pinned in this manner is a
boon as a security focused project. An additional upside is that we will
receive security updates for dependencies via GitHub's Dependabot.
