Configure-based build system doesn't have a documented way to disable modules like setup.py did

Feature or enhancement

To provide the ability to disable modules in the configure-based build system like the now removed setup.py did.

Pitch

Until the removal of setup.py, it was possible to disable modules by editing DISABLED_MODULE_LIST.

In the past I used this to disable _tkinter.

In the configure based system, this is still possible but relies on internal variable names. I can pass py_cv_module__tkinter=disabled to ./configure. It would be useful to have something that was documented rather than having to rely on internal variables like that.

Previous discussion

Not yet, but can do if desired.

Comienza revisando las líneas enlazadas de setup.py y el flujo de compilación basado en configure en torno a la invocación documentada de ./configure con py_cv_module__tkinter=disabled. Determina dónde debería documentarse una interfaz compatible para deshabilitar módulos y qué comportamiento existente debe cubrir; se considera terminado cuando los usuarios pueden deshabilitar módulos sin depender de nombres de variables internas y la documentación refleja el proceso compatible.
