python site.py that loads pth files anywhere on PYTHONPATH

This file is normally created by easy_install / distutils, but removed
and packaged separately to avoid collisions and allow for more use cases.

+        This file is normally created by easy_install / distutils in
+        site-packages and overrides python's default site.py. It adds
+        all parts of PYTHONPATH as site directories, which means pth
+        files are processed in them. We remove the normally created
+        site.py's and package it separately instead as it would cause
+        collisions.
+
+        For each module we have a pth file listing the module and all
+        its dependencies and we include python-site into the
+        PYTHONPATH of wrapped python programs so they can find their
+        dependencies.
