PCbuild/python.props places free-threaded builds in win32t, amd64t, arm32t and arm64t, but only the GIL-enabled counterparts (win32, amd64, arm32, arm64) were listed in .gitignore, so a --disable-gil build leaves its output visible to git.

Split out of #154586 at @zooba's suggestion.

.gitignorelists the four GIL-enabled directories (win32/,amd64/,arm32/,arm64/) but none of thetcounterparts, soPCbuild\build.bat --disable-gilleaves its entire output —.pdb,.lib,.exp,pybuilddir.txt, the copiedLICENSE.txt, and so on — showing up as untracked files. That is easy to sweep into a commit by accident, which is exactly what happened in #154586.This adds the four missing entries, keeping the list alphabetical.
