Currently /usr/bin/python is provided by the python2 package. If python2
is not installed, the built image lacks a provider for it.
This results in failed scripts when using '/usr/bin/python' shebang.

This patch adds a /usr/bin/python symlink for python3 to fix this issue.

The link is created with relative path because using an absolute path would fail
for native and nativesdk.
