[Qemu-devel] [PULL 12/17] configure: Python tests must be done before help message

[Michael Tokarev]

From: Stefan Weil <address@hidden>

The help message uses $python and displays its value, so that macro
should be tested and set early.

With this modification, configure --help displays the correct value
(usually python -B) and no longer creates several *.pyc files.
