2.64.0

This release adds support for --avoid-downloads / --no-avoid-downloads to pex3 lock create. By
default, when available, Pex now locks in --avoid-downloads mode using
pip install --dry-run --ignore-installed --report to power lock generation instead of
pip download. This saves time generating the lock at the expense of having to spend time
downloading distributions later when using the lock to create a PEX or venv. This new lock mode
produces byte-wise identical locks and is available for all Pip versions Pex supports save for
vendored Pip (--pip-version {vendored,20.3.4-patched}).

• Use Pip --report to avoid pex3 lock create downloads. (Use Pip --report to avoid pex3 lock create downloads. #2962)
