- based on pip and other PyPA tools
- includes references to the new Python Packaging User Guide
where appropriate (and the relevant section is at least
partially filled in)
- started new FAQ sections
- both guides aim to introduce users to basic open source
concepts if they aren't aware of them
- existing guides have been relocated (now linked from the
distutils docs) rather then removed, since there is
some needed material that has yet to be relocated to the
distutils docs as a reference for the legacy formats
The stdlib docs for package distribution and building extensions
are rather dated, and that isn't expected to change for 2.7 and
3.3.
The Python Packaging User Guide isn't complete either, but it's
already a much better road map for new users than the existing
stdlib docs.
This commit also moves the documentation for the str built-in function to
the new class entry. Links to :class:`str` now go to the class entry with
the string methods immediately afterwards.

Remove Tools/modulator, a reference to it in the docs, and a screenshot of it.
(I asked the BDFL first, and he approved removing it. The last actual bugfix
to Tools/modulator was in 2001; since then all changes have been search-and-replace:
string methods, whitespace fixes, etc.)

Fix-up and clean-up docs for int.bit_length().
* Replace dramatic footnote with in-line comment about possible round-off errors in logarithms of large numbers.
* Add comments to the pure python code equivalent.
* replace floor() with int() in the mathematical equivalent so the type is correct (should be an int, not a float).
* add abs() to the mathematical equivalent so that it matches the previous line that it is supposed to be equivalent to.
* make one combined example with a negative input.
