1. Use Python 3 stable ABI to build MacVim, and better Python discovery …

   Vim added support for using Python 3 stable ABI in 9.0.1776, which
   allows us to safely load Python libraries of a different version from
   what Vim was built against. Modify our CI to use that. This allows user
   to use whatever Python version they want as long as it's above the
   minimum target. Given that macOS/Xcode still ships with 3.9 by default,
   we build using 3.9 as the minimum version.
   
   Also, change our Python detection script to work better. Change all
   explicit versions in our paths to refer to the "Current" version instead
   which for the most part should "just work" instead of requiring an exact
   match every time we or Python update to a new version (e.g. Homebrew
   will update the Current version to point to the latest Python3). Also
   add support for finding Python 3 from Xcode Command Line Tools which was
   previously not ok to use technically because it's 3.9 and before stable
   ABI support we couldn't load it safely as MacVim was built using newer
   versions.
   
   Fix macvim-dev#1351.
