pip_user_install: add --break-system-packages on Ubuntu 24.04+

Browse Source 
pip3 install --user alone does not reliably bypass PEP 668 in all 24.04
environments. --break-system-packages (pip 22.3+) is the correct override.
Flag is only added when ubuntu_version_ge "24.04" so it does not run on
Ubuntu 22.04 where pip 22.0 ships and the flag is not yet supported.
