  7. python,python3: drop tests from all core packages 

    Well, this slipped by for some time.
This should make the Python core packages even more lighter.

  9. python: split source packages away from compiled packages 

    Well, they're not yet compiled, but in the next commit
they should be.

People have been complaining [citation needed] to me
via email or via Github that Python's performance is crap
because it packages sources directly and they're not compiled.
And Python has to compile the sources on each run, and
on-the-fly.

Allowing compilation caching is also a no-no, because
I'll get complaints that the flash storage fills up
whenever a Python app runs.

So, to give the user a choice, the new de-facto packaging
for Python packages will be:
* ship compiled + [ preferably ] optimized files
* package sources separately

The problem is that this doubles the number of packages
in LEDE/OpenWrt, but build-times should not suffer a big
hit, since the compilation is done once, and the
install phase should not be too intensive.

Oh, and people don't need ship source packages if
they don't want to.
To do that, a packager needs to just call
`$(eval $(call BuildPackage,python-<package>-src))`

The `python-` prefix is important.
