[Slackbuilds-users] Intent for python SlackBuilds with SLKCFLAGS and LIBDIRSUFFIX

Well, it's a template and the original intention was to provide a 
generic template for every packaging methods, but most python-based 
projects do not use those variables so it's safe to remove them whenever 
you see them in your scripts and you have verified that the build 
process works just as before.

It's harmless warning, so we won't be doing a mass edit unless someone 
is willing to do it during development cycle for future SBo repository 
(assuming 15.1).
