Dont import ctypes unless type checking
ctypes in Python 3.14 is broken on Intel macs. It uses libffi which is
broken on Intel macs without extra security entitlements. At least
com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory and possibly
com.apple.security.cs.disable-executable-page-protection

Rather than add these entitlements, we simply do not import ctypes as it
is not actually used on macs anyway.

Fixes #9643
