entrypoints: Discover and load entry points from installed Python packages#

Description#

Discover and load entry points from installed packages.

Upstream Contact#

https://github.com/takluyver/entrypoints

Special Update/Build Instructions#

Upstream does not provide a source tarball, so the tarball was taken from github and renamed.

The source tarball does not contain setup.py, so we put the setup commands in spkg-install.

If the system package is installed and if the (experimental) option --enable-system-site-packages is passed to ./configure, then ./configure will check if the system package can be used.
