Seems removing the PyPackage rule and/or adding dummy install rule
causes some issues inside the build-system, where the libpython2.7.so.1.0
is not seen by packages that depend on python.
Even though that libpython2.7.so.1.0 file is installed properly by `python-base`.

Calling `PyPackage` will install some default install rules for
python packages that are not required for the `python` package specifically
are not required.
That will lead to some conflicts with `python-light` because the
`/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages` folder (+contents) will be
available in both packages.

When cross-compiling, we do not need to add runtime lib dirs.
Also, the cross compilers that are used on OpenWRT do not support
the '-R' option, which causes build failures.
These build failures existed before, but were not noticed,
because it fails only on some setups.
This is because Python's `setup.py` does a lot of voo-doo
automagic that needs handling for some cross-compilation cases.

Packetize some Python modules to reduce size of the overall Python package.
Basically, a new package is introduced, call `python-light`,
and everything that's extra (or big) is put in other packages.
The `python` package becomes a metapackage that installs `python-light`
along with the rest of the packages.

When distutils are copying scripts, path to Python interpreter is adjusted.
This does not work well in OpenWrt buildroot, because the path is adjusted
to absolute path to host Python then. This patch simply disables the
adjusting of the path.

Try to reduce the amount of change in this patch, since it removes
a lot of stuff, when we could just 'ifdef' that stuff out, with 2 lines.
The buildroot project does something similar like this:

This module is not necessary in OpenWrt because the functionality it
provides (i.e. installation of setuptools and PIP) is ensured by
python-pip and python-setuptools packages.

Seems when cross compiling on x86_64 Debian (most likely Ubuntu too)
the host's paths will be added too causing build failures for some extensions.

Python packs some pip installation script during the build,
which looks like a better idea to use for the python-pip
and/or python-setuptools packages.

That would allow for files (in filespecs) to be indented.
As it is now, the files need to be added at the begginning of the line.

Seems that using += adds a space in the PYTHONPATH.
Could be some other error, but at least this way
it's sure to not leave any spaces.

Some symbols are not found (tgetnum and BC).
Looks like the termcap lib, which should be in libncurses(w)
but maybe some build param would be required.

This fix is quite critical since it fixes copying the libpython shared lib.
The previous source folder we've used is ok, it has the shared lib,
but libpython2.7.so is not a symlink of libpython2.7.so.1.0, but
rather a copy of it.
Which means that libpython2.7.so takes twice as much space
on the target's flash.
