PYTHON_FOO_BUILD_OPTS are passed to the build module call of the package
build, this allows passing options to the python build *backend* by
using the --config-setting= option. setup.py is no longer involved since
even the setuptools backend now used the pep517 build method.
The note about the options being passed to
support/scripts/pyinstaller.py seems to be no longer accurate.

As we have many python packages using the poetry(poetry-core) build
system we should add a setup type for it so that we don't have to
manually specify the host-python-poetry-core dependency.

Although the asciidoc toolchain accepts any number of ~ to delimit a
listing block (i.e. a code block), it is actually specified to be
exactly four, i.e. ~~~~. Currently, a mix of diffrent numbers of ~ are
being used - sometimes even a different number at the beginning and at
the end of the block.
Normalize this to always use exactly four ~ for the delimiter.

Currently the text for each package infra that mentions the usage of
variables already provided by the generic infra diverge from each other:
- some (golang, kconfig, python) add a cross-referece to the generic
infra chapter;
- kconfig does not list any example;
- some mention _LICENSE as an example, others don't;
- some (cargo, golang, python) add an 'etc.' at the end of the examples,
giving the idea that can be more symbols provided by the generic
infra than the ones listed;
- most have the text 'works by defining a number of variables before
calling the +<macro-name>+ macro', except golang and kconfig;
- some actually list 'A few additional variables' but keep using some
old reference as 'An additional variable';
- some say 'First, all the package metadata' and other only 'All the
package metadata';
- most mention _SUBDIR as an example of variable supported by the
generic infra, even the generic infra manual not mentioning it.
Improve the correctness for the manual by standardizing the text among
the package infras:
- use the same text "All the package metadata information variables that
exist in the generic package infrastructure also exist in the
<name> infrastructure:" for all of them;
- add the cross-reference for all of them;
- remove the examples of variables inherited from the generic infra -
this also solves the _SUBDIR problem, there no longer is any reference
to _SUBDIR;
- wrap the modified text at 80 columns;
- add "macro" to golang and luarocks infra;
- use "A few additional variables" for qmake and waf.
At same time, add a missing format on golang manual for
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GO_HOST_ARCH_SUPPORTS.

[Arnout:
- remove the examples;
- add "the" where "macro" was added;
- rewrite the preceding paragraphs for kconfig to make it more
consistent.

Note that we do not document the special flit-bootstrap value, as it
is considered an internal implementation detail, and shouldn't
normally be used by packages.

All Python packages have been migrated to a different setup type, and
we're about to bump to Python 3.12 which no longer supports distutils,
so let's drop support for distutils in our python-package
infrastructure.

These variables were removed. In addition, the text describing them
wasn't terribly useful. Just remove the sentences describing them.
