Recent changes to the build tools removed user-defined MACRO capability in INF files. This change manually expands the PYTHON_VERSION macro so that one can again build Python.

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.
