[New-bugs-announce] [issue37354] Write PowerShell Activate.ps1 to be static so it can be signed

[Brett Cannon]

New submission from Brett Cannon <brett at python.org>:

If Activate.ps1 was made to not have substitutions upon generation and be an entirely static file, then the file could be signed and thus not require people to lower their security requirements in PowerShell in order to activate their virtual environments.
