ci: macos: Choose python version

anarazel · anarazel · commit c6f09e188bbc · 2024-03-25T16:39:08.000-07:00
The CI base image used to have a python3 with headers etc installed in PATH,
but doesn't anymore. Instead of relying on a specific version in the base
image, explicitly install one ourselves.

On 16 and HEAD this lead to a build without python support, but on 15 CI
failed, due to explicitly enabled python3 support.
