This allows additional commands to be provided for existing setup.py
...
scripts without modifying either the distutils installation or the
setup.py scripts of packages with which the new commands will be used.
Specifically, an option is added to distutils that allows additional
packages to be searched for command implementations in addition to
distutils.command. The additional packages can be specified on the
command line or via the installation or personal configuration files
already loaded by distutils.

This closes SF patch #102241 .

This is basically the support for package data from Phillip Eby's

implementation rather than to live in subclasses, and added
documentation.

Raw documentation for the bdist_wininst postinstallation script.
...
People are already using it, so these docs are certainly better than
no docs at all. Markup is mostly missing and the layout is probably
ugly, but this can be fixed later.
Question: there are references to MS docs for the CSIDL_... constants
and the IShellLink interface. Are these pointers sufficient, or should
the MS docs reworded and repeated here?

Document the available command line flags for bdist_wininst, which are
...
avaliable in the Python 2.2 branch.
I've left out some flags which are more thought for debugging, if
someone needs them, he can always look at the output of --help.
I'm sure Fred will make some adjustments, so I'll only mark this as a
2.2 bugfix candidate.
There are more options available in the current CVS bdist_wininst,
I will document them after this is in.
