Windows Store installed Python is then found.

Looks like I need to do some python2 vs python3 fixes first which are unrelated to this PR.

I love python3, not...

Ok, merged, thanks! I'm going to check my projects on macOS, Linux and Windows whether it does the right thing (I suspect that FindPackage(Python) prefers python3 if both python3 and python(2) are installed, while find_program("python") would "prefer" python2 on system where both a "python" and a "python3" program is in the path.
