No installers

According to the release calendar specified in PEP 664, Python 3.11 is now in the "security fixes only" stage of its life cycle: 3.11 branch only accepts security fixes and releases of those are made irregularly in source-only form until October 2027. Python 3.11 isn't receiving regular bug fixes anymore, and binary installers are no longer provided for it. Python 3.11.9 was the last full bugfix release of Python 3.11 with binary installers.
