[issue23955] Add python.ini file for embedded/applocal installs

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower added the comment:

Added a patch that:

* adds the applocal option to pyvenv.cfg
* updates the docs to describe how pyvenv.cfg (home and applocal) affect sys.path
* puts a default pyvenv.cfg in the ZIP distribution
* adds significantly more buffer overflow protection to getpathp.c
* prevents a case where sys.path may include multiple blank entries

Currently none of this applies to Linux or Mac builds, though I'm led to believe there would be some value if it did. I'm not the one who can figure all the intricacies out for those platforms though.
