Description

This modernizes our Windows installer, shipping Python 3.10.8 instead of
3.8.14. This release is faster and a better environment to develop on.

Python 3.10 no longer supports Windows 7, so we're dropping that
support. We now require Windows 8 or higher.

Testing Done

Successfully built the installer, and installed RBTools on a separate
Windows 10 machine. Verified I had a working RBTools 4 installation
available via the command line.
