Other pythons #92
Description
While working on the checksums PR, I realized that there are some python versions that aren't currently covered:
- Newer stackless versions
- Portable Pypy
- Precompiled ARM versions for Pypy
- Ironpython
- Conda distribution? (actually, this is the same version as Cpython, but it has a "different stdlib" and doesn't integrate properly with pip, so I guess that pyenv has it for that reason... but maybe now that venv and ensurepip are in the stdlib Conda is just legacy? not sure)
- I just realized that there might be something else as well that is missing, like Nuitka
I don't actually have a need for these versions, I just wanted to note this stuff down

The first 3 would indeed be welcome additions. Not sure about the last 2 though, they are like "distributions" rather than interpreter versions, which is what pythonz is about. Can IronPython be installed easily assuming you already have the Mono environment, a la Jython?

IronPython seems to be just like Jython
this is the commit that added support for it in pyenv:
pyenv/pyenv@60950d0
And it just uses install_zip, which is the same installer that is used for Pypy
