In the case where we use the meson python "find_installation()" function
to get our python binary, we can fail the configure/setup step if the
elftools module is missing. This avoids later errors on build when the
module is missed.
Old output (error logged and config continues):
Program python3 (elftools) found: NO
New output:
Program python3 found: YES (/usr/bin/python3)
Program python3 (elftools) found: NO
../buildtools/meson.build:15:31: ERROR: python3 is missing modules: elftools
