[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/pkg-python: fixing wrong root an prefix

Some python software refers to setuptool/distutils options
to install files in python root directory (like data_files option).
To use this type of option, python root should point to the real python
root in buildroot folder and not to the guest os /.
Prefix path is always built starting from the python root, so it should
be simply /usr.
