python: add python-profile-opt recipe

This patch adds a new recipe that builds a special version of python
that produces profile data for profile guided optimization. It will
install under /opt in order to prevent clash with the "normal" python.
The new recipe directly includes the base python recipe so that they are
build in as similar way as possible and this hopefully decreases the
recipe maintenance burden, too.

Normally, python profile-guided-optimization is done simply by doing
"make profile-opt" which first builds python with profile
instrumentation enabled, then runs a profile task to get the profile
data, and last, re-builds python with profile data guiding the
optimization. However, in our cross-build environment this gets a lot
trickier. We need to split out the steps as building is done on the
build host but we need to run the second step (i.e. run the profile
task) on the target hardware. This patch enables the first step, i.e.
building python with profile instrumentation enabled
