bonsai - drop unrelated pypi aud module

Andrej730 · Andrej730 · commit 015431fa1f23 · 2026-02-03T14:55:14.000+05:00
Turned out `aud` module we had in our makefile had nothing to do with Blender built-in `uad` module 🫣
So no need to install anything from PyPI since this module is generally available in Blender
