Laszlo Gaal b921d982b5 IMPALA-9668: Obey SKIP_TOOLCHAIN_BOOTSTRAP during virtualenv bootstrap
IMPALA-9626 broke the use case where the toolchain binaries are not
downloaded from the native-toolchain S3 bucket, because
SKIP_TOOLCHAIN_BOOTSTRAP is set to true.

Fix this use case by checking SKIP_TOOLCHAIN_BOOTSTRAP in
bin/bootstrap_environment.py:
- if true: just check if the specified version of the Python binary is
  present at the expected toolchain location. If it is there, use it,
  otherwise throw an exception and abort the bootstrap process.
- in any other case: proceed to download the Python binary as in
  bootstrap_toolchain.py.

Test:
- simulate the custom toolchain setup by downloading the toolchain
  binaries from the S3 bucket, copying them to a separate directory,
  symlinking them into Impala/toolchain, then executing buildall.sh
  with SKIP_BOOTSTRAP_TOOLCHAIN set to "true".

To install new packages:

1) Add your package to deps/requirements.txt, or deps/compiled-requirements.txt if the
   the package needs a C/C++ compiler to build . You should specify the version number
   using the "foo == x.y.z" notation so future upgrades can be done automatically.
2) Run deps/download_requirements, it will download the package to the deps dir.
3) Run the "impala-python" command, this should detect that requirements.txt changed and
   automatically rebuild the virtualenv.
4) Now in the python prompt, you should be able to import the new module.

To upgrade a package:

1) Edit deps/requirement.txt to use the version you need.
2) Go to step 2 above.
