Since `lang/python` is it's own folder of Python packages
(for both Python 2 & 3), and these build rules are needed
in a lot of packages [especially Python packages],
putting them here makes sense architecturally,
to be shared.
This also helps get rid of the `include_mk` construct
which relies on OpenWrt core to provide, and seems
like a broken design idea that has persisted for a while.
Reason is: it requires that Python 2/3 be built to provide
these mk files for other Python packages,
which seems like a bad idea.
Long-term, there could be an issue where some other feeds
would require these mk files [e.g. telephony] for
some Python packages.
We'll see how we handle this a bit later.
For now we limit this to this feed.

This should improve build time if you only want to
build Python3 (and not Python).
Because python-pip-conf was part of the python package,
the whole python package (host + target) would get built if Python3
would need to get built.

That way some python packages can choose
to keep their egg-info dirs, if they want to, or they're needed.

The host pip install should have the host's CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, etc
available.
And not the target's flags.
Otherwise, weird things can happen when installing
packages (host-side) that need to build C code.

To install Python packages host side, that
may be needed for a build.
The intent, is to try to reduce host-side Python
packages being installed via LEDE/OpenWrt build system.
Because those seem like a pain to maintain.
The idea is adapted from Yousong's `python-packages`
package.

Depending on execution order the `python-package-install.sh`
script would return a non-zero err code.
So, this enforces that all commands in the script
don't fail (via the `set -e` directive).

Similar to LEDE/OpenWrt's Build/Compile/Default rule,
and other similarities like this.
This should allow Python packages to define
PyBuild/Compile rules to do specific stuff per
package.
The advantage of using these (over just overriding
Build/Compile) is the VARIANT mechanism that is
in place to support packaging both for Python & Python3.
So, PyBuild/Compile will get picked up for the Python
variant build, and Py3Build/Compile will get picked
up for the Python3 variant build.

I admit this may be be a bit aggressive, but the lang
folder is getting cluttered/filled up with Python, PHP, Perl,
Ruby, etc. packages.
Makes sense to try to group them into per-lang folders.
I took the Pythons.
