Python may startup fails if the `home` variable in `pyvenv.cfg` is inaccurate

Bug report

Bug description:

The problem comes from getpath.py. When getpath.py cannot find STDLIB_LANDMARKS from executable_dir, it will set prefix to the PREFIX. If the directory set in PREFIX does not exist, an error occurs.

See details: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/49f15d8667e4755876698a8daa13bab6acee5fa1/Modules/getpath.py#L590-L599

How to reproduce

# 1. build cpython with prefix
./configure --prefix=/home/xx/tmp/install_dir
make
make install

# 2. copy install_dir to another
cd /home/xx/tmp
cp -r ./install_dir/ ./copy_dir

# 3. create a symlink from copy_dir/python
ln -s ./copy_dir/bin/python3 ./pylink

# 4. delete original install_dir
rm -rf ./install_dir/

# 5. use python symlink to create a venv
./pylink -m venv ./bad_venv

# 6. failed to start!
./bad_venv/bin/python3

Fatal Python error: init_fs_encoding: failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings'

We can find that sys._base_executable here is correct, but sys.base_prefix is ​​wrong.
We could configure base_prefix through the real interpreter path, which is used to search for libraries that Python depends on.

まず Modules/getpath.py の590～599行付近を確認し、その後 Linux で報告されている build、コピー、symlink、venv の再現手順を実行します。得られた sys._base_executable と sys.base_prefix の値を比較し、関連する PR gh-127441 を確認します。移動した venv インタープリターが起動し、削除されたインストールパスを参照せずに encodings をロードできれば完了です。
