[issue46996] Drop support of Tcl/Tk older than 8.5.12

[Ronald Oussoren]

Ronald Oussoren <ronaldoussoren at mac.com> added the comment:

Terry: tkinter on macOS already effectively does not support Tk 8.5, or basically anything bug the latest 8.6.x release. That's because older versions have too many bugs that affect Python users, which mostly show up on our tracker as bug reports about IDLE.

Because of this we generally close issues that mention using tkinter with 8.5 on macOS unless the problem can be reproduced using 8.6 as well (using the installer on python.org).
