This adds support for Tkinter-based GUI applications by enabling the use of the _tkinter module as a built-in module.
Matplotlib integration was tested and confirmed to work with both the default and TkAgg backends.
Before use, the Tkinter bindings need to be built using tklib_build.py. On macOS, compatibility is ensured by running GUI applications with the --vm.XstartOnFirstThread option, due to native UI threading requirements.
