support/dependencies/dependencies.sh: check for Python argparse module
The script support/scripts/check-uniq-files uses the argparse Python module. In most recent Python versions (starting with 2.7), the argparse module is part of the standard library, and we already check for the availability of Python in support/dependencies/dependencies.sh. However, when running on an ancient distribution with Python 2.6, the argparse module is not part of the Python standard library, but available as an external module. Without this module, the build fails, because check-uniq-files, which is used in target-finalize, fails to run. To avoid this failure, this commit adds a check in support/dependencies/dependencies.sh to verify that the argparse module is available.
