Allows to inherit that in packages containing Python extensions but still tightly
control packaging of those extensions. Mainly for the cases where you want
those python modules/extensions/parts to be packaged separately from the main
package in order not to introduce python dependency where you don't need it.
Technically, you can do it with distutils-common-base, but it might require
more FILES_* work than with python-dir.

Introduce PYTHON_SITEPACKAGES_DIR along the way, site-packages directory is
referenced frequently enough within class files, but some recipes also pack this
directory as

${libdir}/python2.5/site-packages
${libdir}/python2.6/site-packages
${libdir}/python*/site-packages
/usr/lib/python*/site-packages
${libdir}/*/site-packages

all of which are not perfect.
