portable python detection - #3

Internal embeds Python via pybind11 + <Python.h>, which previously required a fixed C:\Python310/C:\Python313 install. Add python.props that resolves the Python root from (in order): the PythonRoot property, the SPLITGATE_PYTHON_DIR env var, well-known install locations for any CPython 3.x (newest first), and finally the installer path in the registry. The include/libs dirs are injected before ClCompile/Link, and a clear error is raised if no Python is found. Import it from Internal.vcxproj and drop the hardcoded absolute paths.

Bump setup-python to 3.14 and pass its tool-cache root to the build through SPLITGATE_PYTHON_DIR, since the hosted runner does not install Python to C:\Python3XY where python.props probes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Replace the "expects C:\Python313" note with the new resolution behavior: any Python 3.x, auto-detected from standard locations or the registry, overridable via SPLITGATE_PYTHON_DIR / PythonRoot. Link the Python download page and note the runtime DLL must match. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add .vscode/settings.json search/watcher excludes for the pybind11 submodule, vcpkg_installed, and x64 output so they stop cluttering VS Code search results. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
