On Windows, we are extracting a tarball of a Python installation for CI (to avoid needing to juggle umpteen Python installs on umpteen machines). This requires `PYTHONHOME` to be set to use properly since there is no registry entry for the "installation". However, `Activate.ps1` clears `PYTHONHOME` unconditionally. Is there something else we can do to properly integrate with it or should there be an option to say "no, I need `PYTHONHOME` for the stdlib to work"?

I don't know how relevant this is to other platforms at the moment as other mechanisms are sufficient there (Xcode's Python3.framework in the SDK and Linux system packages).
