boot/grub2: replace host-python3 with BR2_PYTHON3_HOST_DEPENDENCY

Commit 86bb1b236 "boot/grub2: needs host-python3" [1] introduced a
dependency on host-python3.

Since grub does not have any specific requirements on host Python
modules, or recent host Python version, this commit replaces the
host-python3 dependency with BR2_PYTHON3_HOST_DEPENDENCY. This will
skip the host-python3 compilation if a sufficient version (3.4 or
greater at the time of this commit) is already present on host. This
will save build time.

This optimization was suggested by Peter, in [2].

Note 1: this commit was checked to ensure that grub is building with
Python 3.4.

Note 2: BR2_PYTHON3_HOST_DEPENDENCY was introduced in commit b60729784
"support/dependencies: add a check for python3" [3].
