Subject: [OE-core] [PATCH] python: ensure usage of host modules while cross     compiling

The issue is generally seen on x86 type of machines passing
-march=bdverX (X=3,4 etc) flags but in general this should
cause a problem when freshly built target modules are tried
for an import during the cross build process.
Aiding the PYTHONPATH with CROSSPYTHONPATH which contains
the native modules resolves the issue.

+
+The PYTHONPATH variable augments the default search path and
+is prepended to it. We need to make sure that host modules
+are used while cross compiling otherwise an illegal instruction
+error is generated if the modules built for target are imported.
