Description
Describe the bug
HrefPrnFieldMixin shows up prominently in profiling up package upload. The reversing / resolution part specifically - lots of time is spent in Django's URL handling stack.

Research direction
Start with pulpcore/app/serializers/base.py lines 66-80 and profile package upload to confirm the reversing and resolution cost attributed to HrefPrnFieldMixin. Trace the Django URL handling calls involved and identify a measurable way to reduce their impact. The issue names no test or specific target behavior, so completion criteria need to be established from the profiling results.
