how to create a UV mapping (?) of a texture onto a product photograph based on a calibration pattern
I repeat my old comment: As long as your images do not have common simple shapes such as straight lines or circles very loose warping should be plausible enough. But the light and shadows should be right. Could you accept it? If yes you can do it in 2D.
An example
One of your unused socks is clipped and pasted over an image of a foot as a new layer. A mesh ...

how to create a UV mapping (?) of a texture onto a product photograph based on a calibration pattern
To my knowledge there's no way to use UV data in Photoshop and I'm not sure it would help with this example because the deformation is quite strong: it'd be a job for vector displacement filter (which Photoshop also doesn't have). If I had a task like this I'd go 3d and since you have Blender as a tag, here's a little breakdown of how I'd approach this:

Using the emboss effect,
cracking up the curves, then applying a gradient map.
The flares / glares are then added in after.
