TIL py3versions has long option names ...
-d, --default print the default python3 version
-s, --supported print the supported python3 versions
-r, --requested print the python3 versions requested by a build; the
argument is either the name of a control file or the value
of the X-Python3-Version attribute
-i, --installed print the installed supported python3 versions
