python: bump to 2.7.6

Even though jumping from 2.7.3 to 2.7.6 looks like a minor version
bump, it is in fact a fairly significant one, because a good number of
changes to help cross-compilation have been merged into Python
upstream. Therefore, most of our patches are affected by this change.

In detail, this commit:

 * Renames all the patches to follow the naming convention of patches
   in Buildroot: the patch file names should not have any version
   number.

 * The patches numbered above 100, that add configuration options to
   disable certain modules of the Python standard library, are only
   renamed and slightly adapted, they didn't change that much.

 * The patches numbered below 100 are almost entirely rewritten: many
   of the cross-compilation problems that used to exist in Python
   2.7.3 no longer exist, and the number of remaining problems is
   smaller, and can be fixed with smaller patches.

-Add support in Python build system to specify host tools
-
-Python needs a Python interpreter and a "pgen" program to build
-itself. Unfortunately, the Python build system assumes that it can use
-the interpreter and pgen program it has just built to build
-itself. Obviously, this cannot work in cross-compilation mode since
-the interpreter and the pgen program have been built for the target.
-
-Therefore, this patch adds support in the Python build system for the
-new PYTHON_FOR_BUILD and PGEN_FOR_BUILD variables, so that we can
-point Python ./configure script to the Python interpreter and pgen
-program that have been previously built for the host.
-
-Patch ported to python2.7 by Maxime Ripard <ripard@archos.com>, and
-later significantly reworked by Thomas Petazzoni
-<thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>, with some inspiration taken
-from the Python patches of the PTXdist project.
