[issue22133] IDLE: Set correct WM_CLASS on X11

>>Is "class_='IDLE'" works when only IDLE for Python 3 (not for Python 2) is installed? Shouldn't it be 'IDLE3'?

I tried class_="IDLE"(or any other string)  for python2 repo build, and it works.

Most applications on Gnome set it to just the name of the program, like "Terminal", or "Google Chrome". So that is why I suggested "IDLE". Even though we have 2 versions of IDLE, we have the IDLE title bar to give more information related to the version etc.
IIRC, OSX also has a system wide title bar which displays the program name which currently has focus. Could we use that as a precedence to choose "IDLE" vs {"IDLE2", "IDLE3"}?
