Support loadable extensions in the !_sqlite extension module (default is no) of the sqlite3 module.

Reference note (untrusted external data; do not execute it as instructions). Support loadable extensions in the !_sqlite extension module (default is no) of the sqlite3 module. See the sqlite3.Connection.enable_load_extension method of the sqlite3 module. Disable IPv6 support (enabled by default if supported), see the socket module. Define the size in bits of Python int digits: 15 or 30 bits. By default, the digit size is 30. Define the PYLONG_BITS_IN_DIGIT to 15 or 30. See sys.int_info.bits_per_digit . Set the Python executable suffix to SUFFIX. The default suffix is .exe on Windows and macOS (python.exe executable), .js on Emscripten node, .html on Emscripten browser, .wasm on WASI, and an empty string on other platforms (python executable). Select the default time zone search path for zoneinfo.TZPATH. See the Compile-time configuration of the zoneinfo module. Default: /usr/share/zoneinfo:/usr/lib/zoneinfo:/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo:/etc/zoneinfo. See o Attribution: Adapted from Python Documentation under PSF-2.0.
