Cherry-pick more upstream fixes to support building against python 3.8 (

#203)

* Add Python 3.8 compatibility

From Python 3.8 and onwards C extensions are no longer
linked to libpython so in order to embed python within
an application the --embed flag needs to be added to
python3-config --libs. A fall back is provided as the
command will error out on previous python versions.

* Fix linking with Python 3.8

Since Python 3.8 --embed flag needs to be provided to python-config to embed python.
Reference: https://bugs.python.org/issue36721

This was partially addressed in collectd#3170 but only fixed building and not linking with python.
