Release builds have been seeing the error:

python3_bin_reldir.txt not found. need to initialize depot_tools by
running gclient, update_depot_tools or ensure_bootstrap.

(eg https://github.com/electron/electron/actions/runs/15114398562/job/42508751795#step:23:44284)

This PR ensures that python is setup for proper use from depot_tools which should eliminate this issue.
