sim,python: follow the new CPython startup sequence
Currently, gem5 suffers from several bugs related
to Python interpreter's locale encoding issues.
gem5 will crash when the working directory contains
Non-ASCII characters.
The reason is that Python 3.8+ introduces a new
interpreter startup sequence [1]. The startup
sequence consists of three phases:
1. Python core runtime preinitialization
2. Python core runtime initialization
3. Main interpreter configuration
Stage 1 determining the encodings used for system
interfaces.
However, gem5 doesn't preinitialize the Python
interpreter. Thus, the locale settings do not take
effect. This patch preinitialize the Python for
Python 3.8+.
Also, this patch avoid the use of `Py_SetProgramName`,
which is deprecated since Python 3.11[3].
