Instead of calling _sanitize_subprocess_env(os.environ.copy()) multiple times throughout _pip_install, we can sanitize the environment once at the beginning of the function and reuse it. This avoids redundant environment copying and blocklist filtering overhead.

Suggested change
uv_env = _sanitize_subprocess_env(os.environ.copy(), {"VIRTUAL_ENV": str(venv_root)})
base_env = _sanitize_subprocess_env(os.environ.copy())
uv_env = {**base_env, "VIRTUAL_ENV": str(venv_root)}
