[yocto] Supporting upcoming distribution releases

[NiQingliang]

/usr/bin/env python2 
/usr/bin/env python2.7
both of them are ok for archlinux, but I don't know which is ok for
other distributions, maybe both are not.

maybe we can make a shell script to detect the python version, and make
a symbollink to the right one in some directory, and add the directory
into env var "PATH".
