Python is missing from the default ubuntu-22.04 runner image, which
prevent git-p4 from working. To install python on ubuntu, we need to
provide correct package name:

 * On Ubuntu 18.04 (bionic), "/usr/bin/python2" is provided by the
   "python" package, and "/usr/bin/python3" is provided by the "python3"
   package.

 * On Ubuntu 20.04 (focal) and above, "/usr/bin/python2" is provided by
   the "python2" package which has a different name from bionic, and
   "/usr/bin/python3" is provided by "python3".

Since the "ubuntu-latest" runner image has a higher version, so its safe
to use "python2" or "python3" package name.

Let's not copy/paste and repeat ourselves here for no reason. Part of
this is pre-existing, but if you just re-arrange these variable decls
you can do this instead:

	PYTHON_PACKAGE=python2
	if test "$jobname" = linux-gcc
	then
		PYTHON_PACKAGE=python3
	fi
	MAKEFLAGS="$MAKEFLAGS PYTHON_PATH=/usr/bin/${PYTHON_PACKAGE}"

Even if you don't factor out the "else" like that (which I think would
be OK to do while-we'er-at-it) this should be changed so that the
"PYTHON_PACKAGE" comes before "MAKEFLAGS" in the two if/else branches
here, so we can then use the variable.
