I installed Python 3.10 on Windows and now the sort order of the versions printed by `py -0` is kind of weird:
```
Installed Pythons found by C:\WINDOWS\py.exe Launcher for Windows
 -3.9-64 *
 -3.8-64
 -3.7-64
 -3.6-64
 -3.5-64
 -3.10-64
```
I'm guessing we're going to have to parse the versions...

(I accidentally first reported this in https://github.com/brettcannon/python-launcher/issues/42.)

This seems like a duplicate of bpo-38506 (which already has a PR).
