Final step in making applets first-class citizens: if the applet wants

argv emulation (i.e. if the end user drops files and folders on the
applets these will show up in sys.argv) BuildApplet will add the required
code to the applet bundle, in __rawmain__.pyc.

This code is compiled from appletrawmain.py, it creates sys.argv, cleans
up most of the mess and executes either __main__.py or __main__.pyc.
