[yocto] Python module not found when using autotools

This is really an autotools question, not a yocto question. Specifically,
what happens at this point?
*| checking python module: soundcloud... no*

Quite likely, the autotools script runs native python and asks it to import
soundcloud, which fails. You need a different approach, maybe checking for
the module file in the target sysroot.

Also, do not use python 2.7. All upstream support for it ends in 6 months.
