Add a FAQ entry about how to turn off `.venv` usage #264

Closed brettcannon closed 1 year ago

Brought up by https://github.com/brettcannon/python-launcher/discussions/261 . It's (hopefully) made clear by https://python-launcher.app/#determining-the-selected-interpreter , but it may not be obvious either.

I was left a bit confused with different Python version when I was running py in an old project directory with .venv but was not active. The confusion was compounded by switching pyenv versions...

I did find that documentation about printing out the interpreter path to diagnose the issue, although took an age to recall this project name :smile:

An FAQ entry might be useful for clarity :thinking:
