When creating a virtualenv using venv.EnvBuilder, it always uses sys._base_executable. However, in some embedded cases (Blender being one example), it is not set to a valid Python executable. The proposal is to add a keyword parameter to the EnvBuilder constructor for specifying which python interpreter to use, much like the -p flag in virtualenv.
