    build: python site-packages vs. dist-packages

    Unlike Fedora and RHEL/CentOS, where python has
    /usr/{lib,lib64}/python2.7/site-packages/..., Debian-based
    distributions have /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/...

    On Debian our python scriptlet to determine this is broken and
    incorrectly returns .../site-packages, not .../dist-packages.
    Furthermore, the automake/autoconf/pkgconfig bits ahead of our
    own scriptlet have already determined the correct location -- all
    we need to do is use it.

    This change also slightly reworks the BUILD_PYTHON_INC scriptlet
    to bring it in line with the style/pattern of the other python
    scriptlets provided by autoconf/pkgconfig.

    (I do wonder though, why we have two sets of {C,CPP}FLAGS and
    LD_FLAGS - PYTHONDEV_CPPFLAGS and BUILD_PYTHON_INC, and
    PYTHONDEV_LDFLAGS and BUILD_PYTHON_LIB.

    They both have very similar values, but, e.g. BUILD_PYTHON_INC
    misses /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/python2.7 on Debian; even if
    that ommission doesn't seem to be hurting us.)
