bin/build-binary-dist.sh: fixes for the Java and Python bindings.

* Just skip the Java binding if there were errors compiling it.

* Install the Python binding in the expected place on Mac OS X when creating
  an OS X installer package. (i.e. under /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages)

Also updated the 3.8 download page and release notes to reflect the above.
