app_python3: update Python3 detection mechanism

This commit

  - removes the python calls whose output is never actually used.

  - changes the include discovery to use python3(.x)-config. This is
    preferable because it also works for cross-compiling. Calling
    python3(.x) directly will always provide host flags, which for
    cross-compiling is not feasible.

  - updates LDFLAGS discovery to also work with >= Python 3.8. To
    achieve this python3(.x)-config is first run with the argument
    "--embed". If this does not succeed (exit status 1)
    python3(.x)-config is run again without "--embed". This is the
    method suggested by Python upstream to provide backwards
    compatibility. See [1] for more details.
