[issue47093] Documentation Fix: Remove .bat when activating venv on windows

[J Y]

New submission from J Y :

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/venv.html

For windows, tutorial-env\Scripts\activate.bat doesn't appear to set up venv 
successfully. 

Instead, tutorial-env\Scripts\activate (without .bat) works. This may confuse 
new users if this is not rectified.

[issue47093] Documentation Fix: Remove .bat when activating venv on windows

J Y  added the comment:

Do you think it's worth changing it to just activate and adding a footnote 
mentioning the variations as I've been a dev for a few years now and it stumped 
me for a minute as I work in a few different envs. 

Mainly thinking of making setting up venv's as easy as possible for new comers 
with one less roadblock on their journey.
