Kevin Veen-Birkenbach 4a4c3c741c dev-yay: override Python interpreter for core tasks to ensure AUR builder compatibility

This change sets ansible_python_interpreter to /usr/bin/python3 when including
01_core.yml. It avoids permission issues when Ansible runs module-based tasks
as the non-privileged AUR builder user, since the virtualenv Python binary is
not executable for that user.
