Adam Duskett 6da6cb2c31 package/gobject-introspection: depend on python3
Currently, the Config.in file has the line:
select BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3 if !BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON

This line is incorrect as gobject-introspection does not support python2.
Instead, remove the select line and make python3 a dependency with a new
message that explains that gobject-introspection requires python3.

# The autobuilders use some toolchains from codesourcery which
# have gcc 4.8 and a very old version of glibc, which will cause
# compile errors with locale.c. As such, require 4.9 until this

# gobject-introspection does not require python3 to run on the

# cross-compiled python3 must be installed to staging. As there
# is no current mechanism to tell Buildroot only to install
# python to staging, then python must also be installed
# unconditionally to the target when building
# gobject-introspection.

GObject introspection is a middleware layer between C
libraries (using GObject) and language bindings. The C library
can be scanned at compile time and generate a metadata file,
in addition to the actual native C library. Then at runtime,
language bindings can read this metadata and automatically
provide bindings to call into the C library.
