One of the main points in the Python 3.14.x release notes was
that free threading is officially supported.
Add PACKAGECONFIG[freethreading] to turn it on with --disable-gil.
GIL is the Global Interpreter Lock, which is kept enabled without
this option.
By default, keep free threading disabled, i.e. GIL enabled.

Thanks for doing this, I'm really interested in using free-threaded python on
Yocto. However, when trying to enable this with current openembedded-core, I
ran into the following problem:

Summary: There were 2 ERROR messages, returning a non-zero exit code.
Any hints on what could be wrong? The same config builds fine without the
new option. It's just a core-image-minimal on poky with a few python packages
from meta-openembedded.
The problem is that now the directories are
${libdir}/python3.14t and ${includedir}/python3.14t
Note the "t" suffix.
