    Build: Really require python 3
    
    Note that AM_PATH_PYTHON() sets PYTHON_VERSION,
    so the advice from AX_PYTHON_DEVEL() to set PYTHON_VERSION
    is useless, because that would be overridden.
    So this also corrects the helpful comment in configure.ac,
    to instead advise people to set PYTHON.
