User may install Python from python.org installer, scoop, conda, and Windows 
Store.
So envvar is not a right tool to configure only one installation.

Anyway, adding more complex way to configure Python can be discussed later.

Paul Moore againsted adding more way to configure Python [1].
So let's focus on promoting existing way in Python 3.10.

Then, suspend GH-24742 (adding checkbox to installer).

In GH-24743, I added the shortcut from the installer. But I am not sure it is 
the best way, because only Python installed from the installer have it.

I will check how conda installs Python on Windows. If it contains Tools, we may 
add `enable-utf8mode.bat` and `disable-utf8mode.bat` to the Tools.
