Builds started failing in Fedora on Python 3.7 with:

    `.gnu.debuglto_.debug_macro' referenced in section
    `.gnu.debuglto_.debug_macro' of
    util/scripting-engines/trace-event-python.o: defined in discarded
    section

In Fedora, Python 3.7 added -flto to the list of --cflags and since it
was only applied to util/scripting-engines/trace-event-python.c and
scripts/python/Perf-Trace-Util/Context.c, linking failed. It's not the
first time the addition of flags has broken builds: commit c6707fdef7e2
("perf tools: Fix up build in hardnened environments") appears to have
fixed a similar problem. "python-config --includes" provides the proper
-I flags and doesn't introduce additional CFLAGS.
