Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#31421: cmake: Improve compatibility with Python version managers
dead908 cmake: Improve compatibility with Python version managers (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
This PR resolves the issue [highlighted](bitcoin/bitcoin#31411 (comment)) in bitcoin/bitcoin#31411:
> Here's another case where CMake just picks some other Python...
The fix leverages two [hints](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/FindPython3.html#hints) for the CMake `FindPython3` module:
1. `Python3_FIND_FRAMEWORK` is set to `LAST`. This ensures that Unix-style package components are preferred over frameworks on macOS. As a side effect, the `FindPython3` module reports a shim or symlink (e.g., from `pyenv`) rather than the underlying framework's binary. The module's output aligns with the result of the `which` command.
2. `Python3_FIND_UNVERSIONED_NAMES` is set to `FIRST`. This supports scenarios where tools like `pyenv`—which use shims—have multiple Python versions installed.
Here are examples of output on my macOS 15.1.1 (Intel) with installed Homebrew's [Python 3.13.0](https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/[email protected]):
- without any Python version manager:
```
% which -a python3
/usr/local/bin/python3
/usr/bin/python3
% cmake -B build
<snip>
-- Found Python3: /usr/local/bin/python3 (found suitable version "3.13.0", minimum required is "3.10") found components: Interpreter
<snip>
```
- using `pyenv`:
```
% pyenv versions
system
* 3.10.14 (set by /Users/hebasto/dev/bitcoin/.python-version)
3.12.8
3.13.1
% which -a python3
/Users/hebasto/.pyenv/shims/python3
/usr/local/bin/python3
/usr/bin/python3
% cmake -B build
<snip>
-- Found Python3: /Users/hebasto/.pyenv/shims/python3 (found suitable version "3.10.14", minimum required is "3.10") found components: Interpreter
<snip>
```
Both variables, `Python3_FIND_FRAMEWORK` and `Python3_FIND_UNVERSIONED_NAMES`, can still be overridden by the user via the command line if needed.
