This feature is off by default via code but on by default via the CLI. The `.gitignore` file contains `*` which causes the entire directory to be ignored.

gh-100176: Remove redundant compat code for Python 3.2 and older
Python 3.2 has been EOL since 2016-02-20 and 2.7 since 2020-01-01, so we
can remove this old compatibility check and unindent the old else-block.
Also, in the unindented block, replace a .format() call with an f-string.
Plus similar changes in the documentation.
Define *posix_venv* and *nt_venv* sysconfig installation schemes
to be used for bootstrapping new virtual environments.
Add *venv* sysconfig installation scheme to get the appropriate one of the above.
The schemes are identical to the pre-existing
*posix_prefix* and *nt* install schemes.
The venv module now uses the *venv* scheme to create new virtual environments
instead of hardcoding the paths depending only on the platform. Downstream
Python distributors customizing the *posix_prefix* or *nt* install
scheme in a way that is not compatible with the install scheme used in
virtual environments are encouraged not to customize the *venv* schemes.
When Python itself runs in a virtual environment,
sysconfig.get_default_scheme and
sysconfig.get_preferred_scheme with `key="prefix"` returns
*venv*.
sys._base_executable is now always defined on all platforms, and can be overridden through configuration.
Also adds test.support.PythonSymlink to encapsulate platform-specific logic for symlinking sys.executable
Add --upgrade-deps to venv module
- This allows for pip + setuptools to be automatically upgraded to the latest version on PyPI
- Update documentation to represent this change
bpo-34556: Add --upgrade to venv module
This will hopefully make maintenance of venv documentation easier.
For example, see commits a4f0d76af176 and 5764cc02244d.
This patch has been reviewed by Vinaj Sajip, the maintainer of
venv module.
