[virtualenv] Use config file rather than env var to set Python

Prior to this change, we used an env var to select the python version to use. This takes precedence over the version passed as a CLI option (see pypa/virtualenv#2285) so breaks thing like nox. This change switches to putting the config in a config file instead.
