[Qemu-devel] [PULL 3/9] configure: keep track of Python version

[Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@redhat.com>]

From: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>

Some functionality is dependent on the Python version
detected/configured on configure.  While it's possible to run the
Python version later and check for the version, doing it once is
preferable.  Also, it's a relevant information to keep in build logs,
as the overall behavior of the build can be affected by it.
