Take pylint 4.0.8

Upstream released it between two CI runs today, which is enough to turn the
freshness gate red on a commit that touched no Python -- the documented and
expected behaviour of a gate that checks "newest stable" rather than "newest
stable as of whenever someone last looked".

The pre-commit pylint hook takes its version from the mirror rev, not from
this file, so nothing about which checks run changes here.

Also refreshes the isort note: 4.0.7 declared `isort<9`, 4.0.8 declares
`isort!=5.13,<10,>=5`, so the comment's specific bound was already stale.
Reworded to state the constraint's purpose rather than a version that moves.

Fixes the red main that ci-baseline-green is blocking commits on.
