Use default python version

Currently npm uses python 2.7 which is EOL.

I tested the attached patch with several projects (that are pulling deps needing compilation) and they where all nicely compiled using python 3.7.7 which is currently the standard version.

These tests failed some time ago, but it seems that upstream everything was fixed.
