USE_PYTHON=yes becomes USES=python
USE_PYTHON=2.7+ becomes USES=python:2.7+

A new PYTHON_FEATURES variable was added, which enables certain features for a
port and replaces some knobs at the same time;
PYTHON_FEATURES=distutils replaces USE_PYDISTUTILS
PYTHON_FEATURES=autoplist replaces PYDISTUTILS_AUTOPLIST
PYTHON_FEATURES=py3kplist replaces PYTHON_PY3K_PLIST_HACK
PYTHON_FEATURES=noegginfo replaces PYDISTUTILS_NOEGGINFO
PYTHON_FEATURES=concurrent replaces PYTHON_CONCURRENT_INSTALL
PYTHON_FEATURES=pythonprefix replaces USE_PYTHON_PREFIX
Some knobs have been deprecated and are to be removed in the near future:
PYTHON_MASTER_SITES - use MASTER_SITE_PYTHON instead
PYTHON_PKGNAMESUFFIX - use PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX instead
PYDISTUTILS_INSTALLNOSINGLE - deprecated without replacement
Some knobs have been removed completely:
PYTHON_MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR
PYTHON_DISTNAME
PYTHON_WRKSRC
Several variables specific to the Python framework are no longer passed to the
build environment to avoid polluting dependency builds.
PYTHON_VERSION is not passed to .MAKEFLAGS anymore
PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION,
PYTHON_DEFAULT_PORTVERSION and
PYTHONBASE are not passed to the make environment anymore
The conversion required a couple of ports to be updated to fit the changes and
new requirements. Those included "bsd.python.mk" directly or contained checks
in places, for which the USES framework would fail to provide correct values.
Python modules directly using the upstream Python package (such as py-tkinter
or py-sqlite3) were updated to avoid using the now unnecessary and remmoved
knobs from "bsd.python.mk".

Pass a PREFIX-safe Python library directory to Python --install arguments.
While I'm here:
- Re-order and sort USE(S) and PYDISTUTILS entries
- Whitespace alignment
Setuptools is the preferred method to manage Python distributions after
many changes to the packaging ecosystem over the past couple of years.
Only ports using USE_PYDISTUTILS= yes are affected by this commit, ports using
USE_PYDISTUTILS= easy_install remains the same however this usage is now
deprecated and should be converted to USE_PYDISTUTILS= yes.
Some Python distributions do not work with setuptools out of the box because
they extend the install command from distutils and not setuptools, and
so they need to be patched accordingly.
pip (which leverages setuptools) works around the issue by using eggs, however
we want to get rid of those as well, as support for "flat" installation is
unavailable or has other issues associated with it.
This work allows us to unify how python packages are built, ensure that Python
distributions are installed consistently, reduces complexity for Python port
maintainers and paves the way for simplifying the Python ports framework in
the future.
