Use `--keep-sandboxes=on_failure` to preserve the process chroot for inspection.

Additionally, I have tried using all possible pip version in `python.pip_version`(for pants 2.17). Versions

22.2.2, 22.3, 22.3.1, 23.0, 23.0.1, 23.1, 23.1.1, 23.1.2, latest

have the above issue, however

20.3.4-patched

is working fine pantsbuild/pants
