reinstall-all reinstalls everything but pipx #965
Description
Describe the bug
I find I have to invoke reinstall-all after each Python update (#633). When I do, I see that pipx fails to reinstall with the error:
⛔ Error, the python executable would be deleted! Change it using the --python option or PIPX_DEFAULT_PYTHON environment variable.
...
The following package(s) failed to reinstall: pipx
This issue happened a few weeks ago and again today when I upgraded to Python 3.11.3 (using homebrew on macOS ARM).
Side note: I'm forced to pipx reinstall xonsh as that's the application that stops working after a Python upgrade. I notice that pipx still runs, and I didn't keep track of what happens to the other pipx-installed applications after the Python upgrade.
How to reproduce
$ pipx reinstall-all --verbose

The following package(s) failed to reinstall: pipx
I reproduced that over and over.
Expected behavior
Pipx should be able to reinstall itself, at least on non-Windows machines. Or if it's not possible for some technical reason, it should account for this edge case and direct the user with some way to reinstall it.
I see there is guidance about "Change the [python executable]", but I have no idea what I'd change it to, as I've never specified it before.
I've installed pipx using:
pip-run pipx -- -m pipx install pipx
Where pip-run resolves to the Python 3.11 bin directory where it's installed.
I can use pip-run to side-load pipx and use that to reinstall pipx:
$ pip-run pipx -- -m pipx reinstall pipx
uninstalled pipx! ✨ 🌟 ✨
