BuildSystem: Search for Python/C API when possibly needed only.

The Python/C API is used only if the Test Framework was enabled in Asterisk
'make menuselect'. The Test Framework is available only if the Developer Mode
was enabled in Asterisk './configure --enable-dev-mode'. And that Python/C API
is used only if the PJProject was found and not disabled in Asterisk; the user
did not go for './configure --without-pjproject'.

Furthermore, because version 2 of that Python/C API is required (currently) and
because some platforms do not offer a generic version 2, the script searches
for 2.7 explicitly as well.

To avoid version mismatch between the Python/C API and the Python environment,
the script searches for the latter in the same versions, in the same the order
as well. Because this Python/C API is just for (some) Asterisk contributors,
the script also goes for the Python 3 environment as a last resort for all
other Asterisk users. This allows 'make full' even on minimal installations of
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and newer.

Because the Python/C API is Asterisk contributor specific, the Python packages
are removed from the script './contrib/scripts/install_prereq' as this script
is intended for Asterisk users. Asterisk contributors have to install much more
packages in any case, like:
sudo apt install autoconf automake git git-review python2.7-dev
