Search for xcbgen with PYTHON_EXECUTABLE

This way users can specify `-D:PYTHON_EXECUTABLE` to force a certain
python executable and that executable will then also be used to search
for xcbgen.

This should also provide a more universal solution to the configuration
issues with pyenv or conda since the user can just specify
`-D:PYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3`.
