Call the package.py script with WRKSRC as the CWD. This removes the need for patching sysconfig.py and package.py (PyPy3) because files that are created by the scripts in the CWD now are created in WRKSRC. This is also consistent with other build stept, where an explicit change of the CWD to WRKSRC is done.

PyPy is a fast, compliant alternative implementation of the Python language
(2.7.18). It has several advantages and distinct features:

 - Speed: thanks to its Just-in-Time compiler, Python programs often run faster
          on PyPy.
 - Memory usage: large, memory-hungry Python programs might end up taking less
                 space than they do in CPython.
 - Compatibility: PyPy is highly compatible with existing python code. It
                  supports ctypes and can run popular python libraries like
                  twisted and django.
 - Sandboxing: PyPy provides the ability to run untrusted code in a fully
               secure way.
 - Stackless: PyPy can be configured to run in stackless mode, providing
              micro-threads for massive concurrency.
 - As well as other features.
