Description
Feature or enhancement
Proposal:
I've been using CPython in my iOS app successfully - but I need to bring my app to visionOS.
Happy to try adding support to the build myself - but I don't know the configure scripts very well. I do have hardware and would also be happy to test.
To be clear - not asking for any sort of specific support. Would just be happy to have build output for visionOS similar to tvOS/watchOS.
Has this already been discussed elsewhere?

Research direction
Start by comparing the existing iOS, tvOS, and watchOS support in the configure scripts and related build paths. Determine how visionOS should produce build output comparable to those platforms, then validate the result using available visionOS hardware. The issue does not name specific files or tests.
