qemu: Ensure pip and the python venv aren't used for meson
Qemu wants to use a supported python version and a specific meson version to "help" users and uses pip and creates a venv to do this. This is a nightmare for us. Our versions stay up to date and should be supported so we don't really need/want this wrapping. Tweak things to disable it. There was breakage from the wrapper shown by: bitbake qemu-system-native <add DISTRO_FEATURES:remove = "opengl" to local.conf> bitbake qemu-system-native -c configure which would crash. The issue is the change in configuration removes pieces from the sysroot but pyc files remainm as do pieces of pip which causes problems.

+qemu: Ensure pip and the python venv aren't used for meson
+
+Qemu wants to use a supported python version and a specific meson version
+to "help" users and uses pip and creates a venv to do this. This is a nightmare
+for us. Our versions stay up to date and should be supported so we don't
+really need/want this wrapping. Tweak things to disable it.
+
+There was breakage from the wrapper shown by:
+
+bitbake qemu-system-native
+<add DISTRO_FEATURES:remove = "opengl" to local.conf>
+bitbake qemu-system-native -c configure
+
+which would crash. The issue is the change in configuration removes pieces
+from the sysroot but pyc files remainm as do pieces of pip which causes
+problems.
+
+Ideally we'd convince upstream to allow some way to disable the venv on
+the understanding that if/when it breaks, we keep the pieces. The patch
+as it stands is a workaround.
