That's possible on most (all?) platforms (pyenv/asdf/uv/mise/...). All
with a question mark because I have no idea which of these would work
on solaris, but some of them are pure bash scripts so those should
work. (and that ignores windows, but that also shouldn't be an issue
generally). These would be per user custom built pythons, so they
would only work with the different plpython/pytest python approach,
but would allow using the latest python for the test suite on all
platforms.
