-----------
Python Bindings: Move version info into own file.
The version information is generated during 'configue' into
a dedicated file. This separates the version info from other
global and static variables used within the package MythTV.
The 'INSTALL_PREFIX' is also generated on the fly. This will
ease the build process of the Python Bindings in the future.

Python: simplify build process via setuptools
Since the 'INSTALL_PREFIX' used within the Python Bindings is now
generated by configure in the file '_versions.py', there is no need
to rewrite the file 'static.py' anymore.
This commit removes now the unnecessary code.

Python: Adapt configure and make to use python-pip
Since Pythons Setuptools deprecates the 'setup.py install' sequence,
Python PIP will be used on newer python versions as a build frontend
implementing the guidline described in PEP 517 (1).
Albeit this eliminates the deprecation warning
"SetuptoolsDeprecationWarning: setup.py install is deprecated.
Use build and pip and other standards-based tools.",
it creates other pitfalls because Python is moving towards PEP 688 (2)
which clearly describes the ownership of python packages.
When doing a 'configure, make, sudo make install' sequence,
one will get a warning
"WARNING: Running pip as the 'root' user can result in broken
permissions and conflicting behaviour with the system package manager."
which is true for MythTV. This should remind a user to first uninstall
MythTVs packages previously installed by the sytems installation manager.
The environemt variable "PIP_ROOT_USER_ACTION=ignore" silences this
warning.
If a OS distribution protects it's python package by the file
'EXTERNALLY-MANAGED' as described in PEP 688 and the root-flag is not
set, pip will not install packages in these locations.
The environment variable "PIP_BREAK_SYSTEM_PACKAGES=1" overrides this
behaviour.
This reminds the operator to better build system-packages and let the
standard OS installer know of these packages and install them.

Python Bindings: Fix INSTALL_PREFIX in _versions.py.in
The NSTALL_PREFIX in _versions.py.in needs to be surrounded by
single quotes, because it is a string.
