python3: upgrade to 3.7.2

I took the same approach as the recent perl upgrade: write recipe from scratch,
taking the pieces from the old recipe only when they were proven to be necessary.

The pgo, manifest and ptest features are all preserved.

New features:

- native and target recipes are now unified into one recipe

- check_build_completeness.py runs right after do_compile() and verifies that
all optional modules have been built (a notorious source of regressions)

- a new approach to sysconfig.py and distutils/sysconfig.py returning values
appropriate for native or target builds: we copy the configuration file to a
separate folder, add that folder to sys.path (through environment variable
that differs between native and target builds), and point python to the file
through another environment variable.

There were a few other patches where it was difficult to decide if the patch
is still relevant, and how to test that it works correctly; please add those
as-needed by testing the new python.

-The CC variable,sometimes like:"x86_64-poky-linux-gcc   -m64 --sysroot=/${TMPDIR}/sysroots/qemux86-64", contains option information. 
-This will lead to wrong compiler name "qemux86-64" rather than "x86_64-poky-linux-gcc" when python finding the compiler name.
-
-Secondly add -L=<path> this way linker will be able to resolve /usr/lib w.r.t sysroot and not
-use hardcoded /usr/lib to look for libs which is wrong in cross compile environment and this will work
-ok on native systems too since sysroot for native compilers is /
