144e21f203 python3: bump to 3.4.2
This commit bumps python3 to Python 3.4.2. Two patches had to be
changed slightly to fix some minor conflicts.

PYTHON3_LIBTOOL_PATH = NO was added to prevent Buildroot from trying
to patch a version of libtool for which we don't have matching
patches, which isn't a problem since we're anyway not using the part
of the Python sources that uses libtool (it's the built-in copy of
libffi, and we use the external libffi).

286ee8001c python3: do not rely only on LIBRARY_PATH for old compilers
The cross-compilation improvements integrated in Python rely on the
compiler exposing a line starting with LIBRARY_PATH when called with
-E -v. This is used by Python setup.py to find the installation
locations of libraries.

However, this LIBRARY_PATH line is not shown by very old compilers,
such as the gcc 4.2.x compiler used on the AVR32 architecture. This
causes libraries installed in the sysroot, such as libffi, to not be
detected by the setup.py script.

To fix this problem, this patch adds addtional logic to setup.py,
which consists in deriving the library paths from the sysroot
location, if no LIBRARY_PATH field was found.

Fixes:
