guix/gnu/packages/patches/python-gst-fix-build-with-python-3.8.patch

Fix build with Python 3.8 by also checking for python-3.X-embed.pc. Since
Python 3.8 the normal checks don't include the Python libraries anymore and
linking of the gst-python module would fail.

Fixes https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-python/issues/28
