New engineers running recent versions of OSX and other OSs will have python >=3.12 installed by default. `node-gyp >= 10` is required for `npm bootstrap` and `npm start` to work out properly of the box without the need of installing additional dependencies for distutils or downgrading python.

NOTE: a version of @electron/rebuild with an updated node-gyp dependency must be available first: https://github.com/electron/rebuild/issues/1116
