Description

If the user builds and install the project:

./configure --enable-python-plugins
make
make install

They won't be able to do the import bt2 necessary to start defining their BT2 plugin.
To write a Python plugin , the user needs to use the Python bindings as well.

The user gets this:

>>> import bt2
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bt2'

We could either:
  1. turn on `--enable-python-bindings` whenever `--enable-python-plugins` is enabled,
  2. error out during the ./configure if `--enable-python-bindings` is not provided.
