Python 3.15

[adang1345]

Notes regarding support for Python 3.15

• Visual Studio 2026 and its associated MSVC++ runtime redistributable will drop support for Windows 7/8/8.1. Continue using Visual Studio 2022. Or maybe vcruntime140.dll will still work just fine despite lack of official support.
• Support for Visual Studio 2026 was introduced (python/cpython@c06f4f4).
• Official 64-bit binaries will use the tail-calling interpreter (python/cpython@2e64e36).
• PSAPI_VERSION needs to be changed to 1 (python/cpython@a7d5a6c). Change appears in 3.16 and may be backported to 3.15.

Are you planning to take a stab at this? 😄

Bad news: Evil Microsoft 😡 have shadow-banned abbodi1406's GitHub repos...
Good news: There's a GitLab mirror:

I've only tested the 32-bit vcruntime140.dll, seems to load and work as expected here in my Vista SP2 32-bit OS (fully updated to EoS, and then some 😜 ) ...

Thanks for your stupendous efforts ❤️ !
