       error: tree-sitter0_21-0.21.3 not supported for interpreter python3.12

Additional context

I use nixos-unstable. NixVim and Helix with tree-sitter are not the cause of an issue, I can do a rebuild with them, error occurs then I add dooit.

I assume from this fix for autotools-language-server (tree-sitter0_21 was added with it in #316901):
#326135
the intended way to fix it is to use python311 for dooit and not fix tree-sitter0_21 build for python 3.12.

Oh, sorry, I made a mistake with the formatting when I mentioned the package maintainer, I left it in the comment

Sorry, I forgot to come back to this... I was trying to see if I could fix textual/tree-sitter-languages/tree-sitter0_21 chain with python312. We can pin to 311 in the meantime.

That one seems to be relatively simple too
(fabaff had upstream pr - tree-sitter/py-tree-sitter#214 replacing distutils with setuptools).
So something like this makes it build with python 3.12:

tree-sitter0_21 patch

It was not accepted upstream, but they fully changed these parts around v0.23 so there is no distutils used anymore.
I am not sure if tree-sitter0_21 needs to be in this pinned state building with only python 3.11 for some reason.
