…sroot - Add Python 3.12.13 (cpython-standalone) download URL for Linux x86_64 - In config(), copy include/ headers into subos sysroot so that the subos GCC can compile C extensions (evdev, mujoco, dm-tree, etc.) without missing pyconfig.h - Supports multi-version: both 3.12 and 3.13 headers coexist in sysroot - Enables `xlings use python@3.12` for projects requiring Python 3.12 (e.g. OpenPI which pins numpy<2.0.0) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
xlings install python@3.12config(), automatically copyinclude/headers into subos sysroot (subos_sysrootdir()/usr/include/) so that the subos GCC can findpyconfig.hwhen compiling C extensionsxlings use python@3.12/xlings use python@3.13Motivation
When using xlings' subos GCC to
pip installpackages with C extensions (e.g.evdev,mujoco,dm-tree), compilation fails with:The subos GCC only searches
<sysroot>/usr/include/, which lacks Python dev headers. This PR copies them from the python-build-standalone install into the sysroot duringconfig().Python 3.12 is also needed for projects like OpenPI which pin
numpy<2.0.0(incompatible with Python 3.13's dm-tree wheels).Test plan
