Description

Would also be nice if this would work with GitHub enterprise gists as well, maybe by environment variables like gh does (GH_HOST).

Research direction
Investigate how uv currently resolves GitHub Gists, likely in the gist resolution module. Look for existing environment variables like UV GITHUB HOST or similar. Reference the `gh` CLI's handling of GH HOST for inspiration. Check the linked comment in issue #15058 for context. The implementation would involve reading GH HOST and using it to construct gist URLs.
