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

Description#

Discover and load entry points from installed packages.

Upstream Contact#

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.

However, these system packages will not be used for building Sage because using Python site-packages is not supported by the Sage distribution; see trac ticket #29023
