system/virtualbox: Script simplifications and python3 support
This drops two switches for the SlackBuild, HARDENING and HEADLESS.
Both of those are gone since the potential benefit is minimal.
Upstream has defaulted to hardening enabled pretty much since the
very beginning. Every official build has it enabled too and thus
also all documentation and bug reports etc. assume it being
enabled. If you really want it disabled you can still edit the
SlackBuild.
Headless adds very little other than resulting in a smaller package
and shorter build times. Same as with hardening, if you really
want a headless version, you can still edit the SlackBuild.
