root: python variants use "python" binary

Port: | root |
Description
The python26 and python27 variants in the root port rely on there being a "python" binary of that version. This is only the case on specific versions of Mac OS X (python26: Snow Leopard; python27: Lion), or if the user has used "sudo port select python
" to select that version. But it is improper for ports to rely on the user having done so. The port must not rely on a "python" binary; it must use the specific versioned python binary provided by the port whose python variant is selected.
This is discussed also in #31247.
If the developers of root will not provide an option for this, we can patch it.
