Verify old version of Python has the lib2to3 import available (#170187)
The `yapf.sh` script checks for specific "known-to-work-with-YAPF"
versions of Python to run YAPF with. On my machine, I have `python3.11`
and `python3.12` (`python3` is a symlink to `python3.12`). However, the
`python3.11` release doesn't have `lib2to3` so the YAPF script fails
with:

```
Checking Python formatting...
To fix, run `et format` or:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'lib2to3'

DONE
```

On my Ubuntu machine I cannot install `lib2to3` through normal APT
packages; `apt install python3.11-lib2to3` fails since that package has
been obsoleted. I've been able to work around this by manually editing
the `yapf.sh` script to check if `lib2to3` can be imported before using
that version of Python.
