[OE-core] [PATCH 07/30] gstreamer1.0-python: add a patch to fix python 3.8 builds

[Carlos Rafael Giani]

Is this related to an issue I mentioned in my RFC?

 > gstreamer1.0-python_1.16.1.bb currently has a problem in that the 
gst-python code tries to load /usr/lib/libpython3.7m.so. But, in a 
regular installation, only /usr/lib/libpython3.7m.so.1.0 would be 
availale. It is possible to adjust the libpython path & name during the 
build. But - what would it be adjusted to? How would the recipe know 
that "/usr/lib/libpython3.7m.so.1.0" is the correct choice? Or perhaps 
would it make sense to add the /usr/lib/libpython3.7m.so symlink to the 
regular (as in: non-dev) Python package?
