This allows to specify version like `3.11` or `pypy3.10` in workflows before those versions are released.
This lessen the burden for users of `setup-python` by not having to modify their workflow twice: once when a pre-release is available (e.g. `3.11-dev`) and once when the first stable release is published (e.g. `3.11`)
Shared libraries for the Mac python builds are not configured with the
relocatable flag, thus must always be configured with the hosted path.

This option allows to specify if the action shall update environment variables (default) or not.
This allows to use the setup-python action in a composite action without side effect (except downloading/installing python if version is missing).
* add support for python-version-file
* Update action.yml
* update to v4, remove python-version default
* python-version overrides python-version-file, like setup-node
* checks '.python-version' by default if nothing else specified
* update tests, update to checkout@v3
* update build
* appease the linter
* remove old test for default python version
* revert readme changes
* update build
This versioning scheme is consistent with other
tools in the python ecosystem so it feels more natural
and allows better interaction with other tools.
fixes#346
This pull-request improves `setup-python` action to add ability to download specific version of Python on flight if it is not available by default.
**Details:**
`setup-python` action will download and install specific Python version from GitHub releases ([actions/python-versions](https://github.com/actions/python-versions/releases)) in case the version is not found in the local cache. All versions of Python available for installation are published in [actions/python-versions](https://github.com/actions/python-versions) repository.
All available versions are listed in the [version-manifest.json](https://github.com/actions/python-versions/blob/master/versions-manifest.json) file.
**Installation time:**
- Ubuntu / macOS: 10-20 seconds
- Windows: ~ 1 minute (mostly related to fact that we use MSI installer for Python on Windows)
