importlib.machinery that provide the suffix details for import.
The attributes were not put on imp so as to compartmentalize
everything importlib needs for setting up imports in
importlib.machinery.
This also led to an indirect deprecation of inspect.getmoduleinfo() as
it directly returned imp.get_suffix's returned tuple which no longer
makes sense.
importlib.machinery.(FileFinder, SourceFileLoader,
_SourcelessFileLoader, ExtensionFileLoader).
This exposes all of importlib's mechanisms that will become public on
the sys module.
FrozenImporter. Docs forthcoming.
I plan on all finders and loaders (and most likely hooks) to live
in imoprtlib.machinery. Utility stuff will end up in importlib.util.
Higher-level API stuff will stay on imoprtlib directly (e.g. import_module).
