We are getting user feedback about missing dependencies (like
"commands" and "log") that are actually imports of internal west
modules by those names.
We've been playing games with the python path to omit typing "west",
but this always caused inconsistency (as the bootstrapper version is
imported as west._bootstrap.version) and now it's causing outright
user confusion.
Let's just be consistent and import everything as west.xxx.
Fixes#57.

Remove support for python setup.py test in favor of an
environment-variable based approach. Add Windows instructions as well.
With this patch, west can now be installed from a setuptools source
distribution (sdist), e.g. with "pip3 install west-0.1.99.tar.gz".

The self-update mechanism checks the West and manifest repositories in
west/ for upstream changes and rebases them to the latest version if any
are found.
'west fetch' and 'west pull' run a self-update before fetching any
project data. It probably makes sense to always work with the latest
version of West and the manifest there. The self-update can be
suppressed with --no-update.
There's also a 'west update' command for manually updating West and/or
the manifest.
West automatically restarts itself after a self-update, before running
any commands or parsing the manifest. This makes it safe to add a new
feature to West and immediately start using it in the manifest.
The restarting is done with a plain exec(3). Getting this to work
required a few changes:
- West now uses absolute instead of relative imports, to make it
possible to execute src/west/main.py directly. This also makes it a
bit simpler to work on West. Relative imports seem to be discouraged
when googling around a bit.
__init__.py was removed from src/west. West is more of an application
than a package now (though it uses some packages internally).
- The internal 'cmd' package was renamed to 'commands', to avoid
clashing with a module in the Python standard library.
'runner' was renamed to 'runners' as well, for consistency.
The tests now have to be run from the West repository root with
'PYTHONPATH=src/west pytest'. The previous testing setup "just working"
relied on having run 'pip3 install -e .' first, which happened to add
src/west to the path due to the bootstrap script being there.
__init__.py was removed from the test directories as well. Packages
mostly make sense for tests if there are naming collisions, and naming
collisions will be obvious if packages aren't used.

This ought to run the tests across a good enough spread of supported
Python versions to get started, and collect coverage statistics.
