Do not build Python by default since it requires manual preparation before it can be built.
Update ReadMe.pdf to include information on configuring and building Python.

This allows the Python 2.7.1 distribution to be extracted into the AppPkg/Applications/Python directory - producing the AppPkg/Applications/Python/Python-2.7.1 directory - then built for EDK II using the Standard C Libraries provided by the StdLib package.
Only rudimentary functionality has been tested.
Only compilation with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 has been tested for Ia32 and X64 architectures.
The X64/pyconfig.h file should probably be updated to match the values in Ia32/pyconfig.h.

Applications which require file-system functionality must have DevShell listed in the [LibraryClasses] section of the application's INF file.
Entries for the device abstraction Library Classes must be added to the application's package's DSC file.

This set of three packages: AppPkg, StdLib, StdLibPrivateInternalFiles; contains the implementation of libraries based upon non-UEFI standards such as ISO/IEC-9899, the library portion of the C Language Standard, POSIX, etc.
AppPkg contains applications that make use of the standard libraries defined in the StdLib Package.
StdLib contains header (include) files and the implementations of the standard libraries.
StdLibPrivateInternalFiles contains files for the exclusive use of the library implementations in StdLib. These files should never be directly referenced from applications or other code.
