gnu: python: Do not install static libraries.

This is something Fedora already does since 2010, so it should be safe,
and saves a lot of space.

* gnu/packages/patches/python-2.7-no-static-lib.patch: New file.
* gnu/packages/patches/python-3-no-static-lib.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add them.
* gnu/packages/python.scm (python-2.7, python-3): Use them.
