commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=6ccfd40711e122c720145044eb4d145a8bacd9db
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Syslinux use some python scripts during the build and they
are using python interpreter by default. It fail to build
when there is no python interpreter on the host.

[...]/syslinux-6.03/com32/cmenu/menugen.py
make[6]: python: No such file or directory

Since Syslinux 5.00, we can override the python interpreter
used during the build:

https://repo.or.cz/syslinux.git/commitdiff/4dec62ce9c2c0d170f21b3ae2d7c618eb7a30c05

Add the	missing	host-python3 dependency and override
it in SYSLINUX_BUILD_CMDS.
