Description
## Information
**VIM version**
NVIM v0.11.0-nightly+852954f
Build type: Release
Operating System: NixOS unstable
## What went wrong
It doesn't appear to be possible to use a specifically-configured `_executable` option for many (any?) of the Python linters/fixers if you have `python_auto_pipenv`, `python_auto_poetry`, or `python_auto_uv` set and one of those is actually present. This is a problem if you do want to be able to use locally-supplied tools by default, but need to provide a globally-supplied tool for some specific case.
## Reproducing the bug
1. Have the following set:
```vim
let g:ale_python_auto_poetry = 1
let g:ale_python_flake8_use_global = 1
```
2. Go open a Python file in a project that is using Poetry.
3. Check `:ALEInfo`, note that it is calling `... ''poetry'' run flake8 ...` instead of using the executable name/path from `g:ale_python_flake8_executable` as the documentation for `g:ale_python_flake8_use_global` states it should.
