debug/gdb: new option to enable/disable use of python

Add a new option to enable/disable the Python scripting in gdb.
Hide the option (ie. disable it) when statically linking the cross-gdb.

+      Say 'y' if you want to use Python scripting inside gdb.
+      Say 'n' if you do not want to.
+      
+      Beware that enabling Python scripting could render the gdb
+      executable non-functional if you move it to another machine.
+      Building a static gdb can help in this regard, although there
+      have been reports of problems when linking gdb to the static
+      libpython.a. This should be fixed in gdb >=7.3. YMMV.
