* Reverted most of the recent Python refactorings, as discussed. It's

a worthy goal to move the Python packages that are currently in
  all-packages.nix into a single attribute set, but this doesn't
  require moving python-packages.nix or the other changes made to that
  file.  The Python packages in all-packages.nix should simply be
  moved to python-packages.nix, and ideally changed to use
  buildPythonPackage.
