This sets a version number in the find_package() call that looks for the Python lib. Useful if multiple versions of the lib are installed and the user wants CMake to find a particular one of them. In its most basic form, this can be used to select between Python 2 and 3 (simply set the option to 2 or 3, respectively). But minor versions are also supported (e.g. 2.7 vs. 2.6). Leaving it unset (the default) makes CMake behave the same way as before.

This should fix a couple of problems people were having with Python bindings (see #328 and #335 for example). Also some documentation that we can refer to (and hopefully build upon).
