[issue26504] tclErr: invalid command name "PyAggImagePhoto"

[Roger Mosher]

New submission from Roger Mosher:

when trying to show a FigureCanvasTkAgg the program crashes.  Debugging eventually leads me to TkAgg.blit method where we find the following line:
        tk.call(
            "PyAggImagePhoto", photoimage,
            id(data), colormode, id(bbox_array))

which generates a TclError, namely that "PyAggImagePhoto" is an invalid command.  I am using tkinter 8.6
