gdb: fail configure if Python version is too old for limited API
GDB can be built against the Python limited API using the configure
flag '--enable-py-limited-api=yes'. This flag is currently experimental,
and the build is not yet fully successful. Today, the minimum required
Python version for this option is 3.11. This requirement is not final
and will be raised to a later version as the migration progresses.
However, the configure script does not currently report an error if an
older version of Python is used. Instead, the build fails later with
numerous errors that are difficult to relate to Python limited API
compatiblity.
This patch adds a version check when '--enable-py-limited-api=yes' is
specified, ensuring that the provided Python version meets the minimum
requirements for the limited API support. If it does not, configure will
now fail with a clear error message.
