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.

-Use correct mechanism to determine 32/64 bits
-
-Python setup.py builds certain extensions (dl and imageop) only on 32
-bits architecture. However, to test whether the architecture is 32
-bits or not, it was looking at the sys.maxint value of the host Python
-interpreter... which might run on a 64 bits architecture even though
-the target is 32 bits, or which might run on a 32 bits architecture
-even though the target is 64 bits.
-
-Therefore, we introduce a is_arch_64_bits() function, which looks at
-the pyconfig.h file generated by ./configure for the value of
-SIZEOF_LONG to determine if the architecture is 32 or 64 bits.
