_wmi missing in sys.stdlib_module_names #123892
Description
Bug report
Bug description:
Given that import _wmi succeeds on a minimal Python distribution (embeddable amd64 downloaded from https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3130rc2/ for example), should _wmi not be included in sys.stdlib_module_names?
python-3.13.0rc2-embed-amd64 $ .\python.exe
Python 3.13.0rc2 (tags/v3.13.0rc2:ec61006, Sep 6 2024, 22:13:49) [MSC v.1940 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
>>> import sys
>>> "_wmi" in sys.stdlib_module_names
False
>>> import _wmi
>>>
(My use case is that I am generating license exports automatically and any packages that are not resolvable to a distribution and not included in stdlib_module_names lead to an error or need special-casing.)

Fixed by fb1b51a. Backports will follow.
Sadly, the list of Windows extensions is maintained manually, and we forgot the _wmi extension. It's now fixed.
