cmake @3.24.3 +docs+python310 - cannot build as it wants py311-sphinx

[snowflake (Dave Evans)]

cmake did not upgrade today with the documentation variants.

I tried port -s upgrade --enforce-variants cmake +docs +python39

I also tried it with +python310

Both attempts failed with:

sudo port -s upgrade --enforce-variants cmake +docs +python310

The +python311 variant having nonexistent dependencies is a problem that's being worked on. But what's worse is this:

% port deps cmake +docs +python310
Full Name: cmake @3.24.3_0+docs+python310
Extract Dependencies: lbzip2
Build Dependencies:   py311-sphinx, py311-sphinxcontrib-applehelp,
                      py311-sphinxcontrib-devhelp, py311-sphinxcontrib-htmlhelp,
                      py311-sphinxcontrib-jsmath, py311-sphinxcontrib-qthelp,
                      py311-sphinxcontrib-serializinghtml,
                      py311-sphinxcontrib-websupport
Library Dependencies: libcxx, curl, expat, zlib, bzip2, libarchive, ncurses,
                      libuv

i.e. +python310 (or indeed any python variant) adds py311 dependencies instead of the requested version.

This is exactly the same problem as #62402, just with a new python version.
