Many of the most usual python3 modules are missing when
trying to import them to python3 in images built with
python3-core installed.

This change creates the python3 packagegroup, containing
the most usual python3 packages to be installed for images
featuring complete python functionality by using the
FEATURES_PACKAGES variable to define python3 as a new feature
and then adding it to the image to build.

Out of curiosity, why not just install ‘python3-modules’?
I completely agree with this, installing python3-modules would provide the behavior that is requested.
I had the same thought when reviewing the request for this change (at
[1]); adding python3 to EXTRA_IMAGE_INSTALL do also provide most of the
usual python modules. However, I created the packagegroup as a way to
have a more or less complete python installation available as an image
feature, and I expect to gather enough feedback from the community
before rejecting/accepting it (so, comments are welcomed :) )
