Subject: [PATCH] CMake: Enable selection of a specific python impl

On distros with multiple python impls it can be useful to select
a specific version rather than whatever CMake thinks is appopriate.

This patch enables users to instruct CMake to look for a specific
version of python by passing `-DPYTHON_FIND_VER`.
