libguestfs' autoconf-based build system checks for python-$MAJOR-$MINOR
using pkg-config. As of Python 3.8, someone seems to have decided to
introduce a separate pkg-config "-embed" flavor and to drop linker
instructions from the "plain" flavor.

I guess I'll have to update the autoconf scripts. Awesome.
