Subject: autoconf: Add support for setting PYTHON_PATH or NO_PYTHON

This patch adds support for setting either PYTHON_PATH or NO_PYTHON to
autoconf generated ./configure script via --with-python=PATH (sets
PYTHON_PATH) or --without-python (sets NO_PYTHON).  Autodetect
PYTHON_PATH via AC_PATH_PROGS.
