Hatch requires depricated ImpImporter in 3.12

I have some projects with pyproject.toml where I run the tests with:

[tool.hatch.envs.test.scripts]
base = "pytest {args}"
integration = "pytest --integration {args}"

if I include 3.12 in the test matrix the tests fail to launch as I get the error:

──────────────────────────────────────── test.py3.12 ─────────────────────────────────────────
ERROR: Exception:

AttributeError: module 'pkgutil' has no attribute 'ImpImporter'. Did you mean: 'zipimporter'?

while if i run:

python3.12 -m venv env
source env/bin/activate.fish
pip install .
pip install pytest
pytest

the tests complete successfully.

❯ hatch --version
Hatch, version 1.12.0

I've tried this on a range of machines with different projects, including a clean fresh new one.

All on WSL2 with ubuntu.
