• Given that https://svn.python.org/projects/python/externals no longer exists, create https://github.com/adang1345/cpython-source-deps and https://github.com/adang1345/cpython-bin-deps to hold external dependencies that Python 3.5 requires that were never migrated from SVN to GitHub.
• Rebuild Python 3.5 using Visual Studio 2022 and the Windows 11 SDK. Patch the build script to pull some external dependencies from https://github.com/adang1345/cpython-source-deps and https://github.com/adang1345/cpython-bin-deps. Use Windows SDK 10.0.15063.468 to build the Tcl/Tk external dependency.
