[issue27868] Unconditionally state when a build succeeds

[Brett Cannon]

New submission from Brett Cannon:

When setup.py succeeds at building but couldn't build some dependency it says "Python build finished successfully!" and then lists the modules that couldn't be built. But if you are able to actually build everything then nothing is printed to stdout. Due to the fact that getting everything to build takes so much effort, when I finally reached the nirvana that is all modules built I thought my build had actually failed thanks to nothing being printed to stdout.

It might be worth always printing out that the build succeeded no matter whether a extension module had issues being built or not.
