python3: add patch to fix PEP 3147 issue with automake built packages

Packages built with automake use a `py-compile` helper to byte-compile
Python source files. This script uses the "py_compile" module from the
standard library. In turn, the compile() function in the "py_compile"
module invokes the cache_from_source() function provided by importlib.

This commit adds a new patch named "020-importlib-no-pep3147.patch"
that changes cache_from_source() and source_from_cache() in importlib
to get rid of the "__pycache__" directory.

This commit fixes the following import error in kmod when the module
is built for Python 3:

  >>> from kmod import Kmod
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  ImportError: cannot import name 'Kmod'

Moreover, this commit removes two patches that are no longer necessary
since modifying cache_from_source() and source_from_cache() disables
PEP 3147 for the standard library and distutils / setuptools.

+Add importlib fix for PEP 3147 issue
+
+Python 3 has a new standard for installing .pyc file, called PEP
+3147. Unfortunately, this standard requires both the .py and .pyc
+files to be installed for a Python module to be found. This is quite
+annoying on space-constrained embedded systems, since the .py file is
+technically not required for execution.
+
+This patch changes cache_from_source() and source_from_cache() in
+importlib to get rid of the "__pycache__" directory.
+This effectively disables PEP 3147 for:
+
+* The python standard library
+* Packages built with distutils or setuptools
+* Packages built with automake that use the `py-compile` helper
