Some notes about the 'encodings' module, which is about 1.7 MB.
Unfortunately that one cannot be moved into the 'python3-codecs'
package, because Python tries to load up all available encodings
at startup.
Some efforts to add a dummy folder/python file have failed so far,
since there's a C code (Python/codecs.c) that tries to evaluate that
all encodings (in the encodings folder/module) are valid.
Basically the encodings module is a repository of encodings,
and it seemst there are quite a few of them.
Maybe a request to upstream Python would work for this, to
make encodings a bit more decoupled from the interpreter.

Based on the idea that 'what-works-on-python-should-work-on-python3'
because they share the same trunk, these patches have been copied over
from the python package.

Rule of thumb is: any Python file that is greater than 100kb
(or adds a dependency with which it adds more than 100 kb)
should be a pretty useful/commonly used lib to stay in `python-light`.
An example, is the Python IO lib, which summarized (Python source +
binary module) is over 200kb.
Also moved some files that should have been put into previously
existing packages before, and re-organized the packages a bit.

Seems removing the PyPackage rule and/or adding dummy install rule
causes some issues inside the build-system, where the libpython2.7.so.1.0
is not seen by packages that depend on python.
Even though that libpython2.7.so.1.0 file is installed properly by `python-base`.

Calling `PyPackage` will install some default install rules for
python packages that are not required for the `python` package specifically
are not required.
That will lead to some conflicts with `python-light` because the
`/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages` folder (+contents) will be
available in both packages.

When cross-compiling, we do not need to add runtime lib dirs.
Also, the cross compilers that are used on OpenWRT do not support
the '-R' option, which causes build failures.
These build failures existed before, but were not noticed,
because it fails only on some setups.
This is because Python's `setup.py` does a lot of voo-doo
automagic that needs handling for some cross-compilation cases.

Packetize some Python modules to reduce size of the overall Python package.
Basically, a new package is introduced, call `python-light`,
and everything that's extra (or big) is put in other packages.
The `python` package becomes a metapackage that installs `python-light`
along with the rest of the packages.

When distutils are copying scripts, path to Python interpreter is adjusted.
This does not work well in OpenWrt buildroot, because the path is adjusted
to absolute path to host Python then. This patch simply disables the
adjusting of the path.

Try to reduce the amount of change in this patch, since it removes
a lot of stuff, when we could just 'ifdef' that stuff out, with 2 lines.
The buildroot project does something similar like this:

This module is not necessary in OpenWrt because the functionality it
provides (i.e. installation of setuptools and PIP) is ensured by
python-pip and python-setuptools packages.

In case threading is enabled, perl is compiled with -D_REENTRANT
and -D_GNU_SOURCE, which, apart from other things, enables usage
of off64_t. As we override module CFLAGS manually, we'll have to
pass that flags as well.
