libgpiod: fix python bindings build

It seems that automake's AM_PATH_PYTHON() macro no longer sets the
$PYTHON variable. This means the python bindings build for libgpiod has
been broken for some time. As we know which version we're using -
python3 - let's hardcode it in configure.ac. For now add a patch that's
been merged upstream and once a new bugfix release is out, we'll remove
it.

Subject: [libgpiod v1.6.x][PATCH] build: don't expect automake to set $PYTHON
It seems that the implementation of AM_PATH_PYTHON() changed in automake
recently and no longer sets $PYTHON variable which breaks the build on
some systems.
We know we use python3 so use python3-config explicitly.
