Before python3.11, when in a venv the zip path is calculated
from prefix on POSIX platforms. In python3.11 the behavior is
accidentally changed to calculating from default prefix. This
change will break venv created from a non-installed python
with a stdlib zip file. This commit restores the behavior back
to before python3.11.
Check to see if `base_executable` exists. If it does not, attempt
to use known alternative names of the python binary to find an
executable in the path specified by `home`.
If no alternative is found, previous behavior is preserved.

- On WASI `ENOTCAPABLE` is now mapped to `PermissionError`.
- The `errno` modules exposes the new error number.
- `getpath.py` now ignores `PermissionError` when it cannot open landmark
files `pybuilddir.txt` and `pyenv.cfg`.
Add the -P command line option and the PYTHONSAFEPATH environment
variable to not prepend a potentially unsafe path to sys.path.
* Add sys.flags.safe_path flag.
* Add PyConfig.safe_path member.
* Programs/_bootstrap_python.c uses config.safe_path=0.
* Update subprocess._optim_args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle
the -P command line option.
* Modules/getpath.py sets safe_path to 1 if a "._pth" file is
present.
The side effect of this bug was that venv environments directly
used the main interpreter instead of the intermediate stub executable,
which can cause problems when a script uses system APIs that
require the use of an application bundle.
This defines VPATH differently in PGO instrumentation builds, to account for a different default output directory. It also adds sys._vpath on Windows to make the value available to sysconfig so that it can be used in tests.
The getpath.py file is frozen at build time and executed as code over a namespace. It is never imported, nor is it meant to be importable or reusable. However, it should be easier to read, modify, and patch than the previous code.
This commit attempts to preserve every previously tested quirk, but these may be changed in the future to better align platforms.
