Summary	0004840: parsetab.py not created as part of installation
Description	FreeCAD uses ply.yacc in two places: `Mod/Fem/femtools/tokrules.py:yacc.yacc() Mod/OpenSCAD/importCSG.py: parser = yacc.yacc(debug=0)` According to https://www.skenz.it/compilers/ply > Since table construction is relatively expensive (especially for large grammars), the resulting parsing table is written to a file called parsetab.py. In addition, a debugging file called parser.out is created. When FreeCAD has been installed to a write-protected (not writable by regular user) path, the parsetab.py can not be created.
Steps To Reproduce	This is e.g. visible when running the "TestFemApp" unit test: `....WARNING: Couldn't open 'parser.out'. [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/lib64/FreeCAD/Mod/Fem/femtools/parser.out' WARNING: Token 'COMMENT' defined, but not used WARNING: There is 1 unused token Generating LALR tables WARNING: Couldn't create 'femtools.parsetab'. [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/lib64/FreeCAD/Mod/Fem/femtools/parsetab.py'`
Additional Information	This was already mentioned in: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?style=1&p=369267#p369267
