* Detect the new `venvlauncher.exe` and `venvwlauncher.exe` on Windows for Python 3.13 and later. * Previously, virtualenv expected `python.exe` which is no longer the case on newer Python versions. * This ensures that virtualenv can correctly create environments using the system Python interpreter on Windows for Python 3.13+.

Marked this as a draft for now 🚧—let’s get the CI sorted, and then feel free to mark it ready for review! 😊 |
* Handle pythonw.exe redirection for venvwlauncher.exe on Python 3.13+. * This ensures the correct launcher is used when creating virtual environments. Signed-off-by: Emre Şafak <3928300+esafak@users.noreply.github.com>
* Modify the `executables` method in `cpython3.py` to correctly handle launcher paths for Python 3.13 and newer on Windows. * The change ensures that `venvlauncher.exe` and `venvwlauncher.exe` are used as sources when available, improving the creation of virtual environments with specific interpreter versions. * Introduces new `ExePathRefToDest` objects with updated source paths for the executables.

* Correctly create ExePathRefToDest instances for Python 3.13+
launchers.
* Update source paths for `venvlauncher.exe` and `venvwlauncher.exe`.
* Ensure `targets` are correctly populated for the new refs.
* Import ExePathRefToDest from ref module.
