… Python 3.12/3.13 support Details: - Upgraded base image from ubuntu:20.04 to ubuntu:22.04. - Fixed Python 3.6 compilation on Jammy by building OpenSSL 1.1.1w from source with gcc-9. - Applied sed patch for SIGSTKSZ to fix Glibc 2.35 compatibility for Python 3.6. - Added Python 3.12 and 3.13 environments. - Pinned pip<25.0 and setuptools==60.8.2 to maintain compatibility with legacy editable installs and ccm. - Added dummy pkgutil.ImpImporter injection to fix setuptools crashes on Python 3.12+.

@michaelsembwever , I completely missed that one. I just pushed an update with the 3.10 fix. While I was at it, I followed your lead from the in-tree images and renamed the files to be generic (ubuntu_j11.docker and ubuntu_j11_w_dependencies.docker). I've also updated all the scattered references across the repo (README, Jenkins groovy scripts, etc.) to use the new generic tags, and verified that the image builds cleanly on my end. Let me know if I missed anything else! |

Motivation and Context
To support Python 3.12 and 3.13 for
cqlshtesting (CASSANDRA-20997), the base testing docker image (ubuntu2004_j11.docker) needed an upgrade to Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy). However, upgrading to Jammy completely broke the legacy Python 3.6 build due to incompatibilities with modern toolchains (OpenSSL 3.0 and Glibc 2.35). Additionally, modern versions ofpipandsetuptoolsbreak the legacycassandra-driverandccmdependency installations.This PR upgrades the image while surgically retaining full support for all older Python environments (including 3.6) so that we don't have to split the testing images between
trunkandcassandra-5.0.Description of Changes
