Currently, the wrapper command for running picolibc tests in ATfE
includes a direct call to the picolibc-test-wrapper.py script, relying
on the script's shebang line to invoke the python interpreter. This is a
problem for invoking tests on Windows platofrms, as the naming of the
Python 3 executable is not consistent with the one used on Unix - i.e.
python vs python3.
To fix this problem, this change adds the path for the python executable
to that call. The path used is the one discovered by CMake as part of
the find_package(Python3 ...) command.

LGTM. This isn't even only useful on Windows: it also helps other systems that are crossing the python-is-python3 divide, and maybe also systems that have installed Python somewhere weird that isn't on PATH but the build system can find it some other way.
