Support python 2 print statements in SConscripts

This fixes a regression introduced in scons-3.0.0, where
SConscripts containing python 2 print statements would cause
syntax errors even when executing scons with python 2.7.

This ensures backward compatibility, allowing users to build
legacy code with scons-3.0.0 without having to patch it.

     - Whatever John Doe did.
 
+  From Thomas Berg:
+    - Fixed a regression in scons-3.0.0 where "from __future__ import print_function" was imposed
+      on the scope where SConstruct is executed, breaking existing builds using PY 2.7.
