[poky] [PATCH 1/1] bitbake wrapper: exit if python v3 is detected

Make sure we're not using python v3.x. This check can't go into
sanity.bbclass because bitbake's source code doesn't even pass
parsing stage when used with python v3, so we catch it here so we
can offer a meaningful error message.

This fixes bug [YOCTO #1128]
