Note that the top-level setup.py script has disappeared completely,
hence the two dropped patches. AFAICT this doesn't regress building any
of the native modules, presumably because the configure script fully
takes care of this now:
```
The necessary bits to build these optional modules were not found:
_dbm _gdbm _posixshmem
_tkinter nis ossaudiodev
To find the necessary bits, look in configure.ac and config.log.
Checked 111 modules (31 built-in, 73 shared, 1 n/a on serenityos-x86_64,
0 disabled, 6 missing, 0 failed on import)
```
This now requires `--host` and `--with-build-python` to be passed to the
configure script when cross compiling; the former we simply do like in
many other package.sh scripts as well, the latter we point to `python3`,
which is expected to match the port's version anyway.
This was released a couple of days ago, on 2021-12-06 and contains
various changes that we previously needed custom patches for, so we are
now able to remove those and compile more unchanged upstream sources.
Thanks to Rodrigo for making that effort! :^)
