"Python: upgrade to 3.11.11 (master only)".
However, the Windows build now needs an existing python.exe to create
deepfreeze.c, See https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.11/PCbuild/
_freeze_module.vcxproj#L397
So we now need an external Python executable to be available to
"bootstrap" the build of ExternalProject_python3? I would say: Add
some `--with-bootstrap-python=...` configure option to let users specify
where to take that from (and move to configure.ac whatever convenience
code there is to find or obtain it for the users who don't specify that
`-with-bootstrap-python=...` explicitly).
