build-details.json should be installed to different locations for nondebug/debug builds and have distinct base_interpreter values

Bug report

Bug description:

In Fedora, we build Python in 4 variants: debug, optimized, freethreading-debug and freethreading. For all of them builds the base_interpreter value stored in the file build-details.json is the same:

  "base_interpreter": "/usr/bin/python3.14",

I suspect it should reflect the build type and contain the applicable suffix(es): d, t, td.
Because of this line, when we run Python's test suite on an installed python3-debug, the test fails, as you can see e.g. here: https://artifacts.dev.testing-farm.io/0ac8ab69-ed5f-4602-9c01-8c13293aa9b6/

test_base_interpreter (test.test_build_details.CPythonBuildDetailsTests.test_base_interpreter) ... FAIL

Another issue is that in both cases, the debug and non-debug files are installed to the same location, resulting in a single rewritten file. In case of our sequential build of 4 Pythons, we end up with just two files. Should they be stored in distinct locations for each build instead?

Just ship the file for the main/default interpreter, I guess? We probably shouldn't install the file in altinstall, and better document expectations for scenarios like yours.
