    cmake: search for python interpreter and use the found interpreter
    
    Instead of just calling 'python', find the correct python interpreter
    with find_package and use that interpreter when calling python.
    
    This avoids a bug on systems that do not provide an unversioned python
    (i.e., that use 'python2' instead of 'python'). This should also avoid
    using the python3 interpeter on accident.
