PYTHON_DEFAULT needs to be bumped to at least 3.10, or to the latest 3.12

[Yuri]

Hi,


More and more Python packages require Python versions higher than 3.9.

For example, FinanceToolkit https://github.com/JerBouma/FinanceToolkit


Thanks,

Yuri

Hello.

Since the number of package names seems to have exceeded 32768 (Mark-san said) 
the new version will reduce the number of packages in the python port of 
allflavors.

Regards.

FYI for my recent, from-scratch, bulk -a on/for amd64:

SET PORTS   JAIL  BUILDSTATUS QUEUE BUILT FAIL SKIP 
IGNORE FETCH REMAIN TIME LOGS
-   default main-amd64-bulk_a 2023-11-01_07h14m50s done   34683 33826  179  358 
   320 0  0 35:37:55 
/usr/local/poudriere/data/logs/bulk/main-amd64-bulk_a-default/2023-11-01_07h14m50s

So, vs. the UFS 32767 links limit in a directory, that is:

33826-32767 = 1059
34683-32767 = 1916
