Dave Hunt 5152485bdc Bug 1346026 - Add ability to vendor Python modules using mach; r=ahal,erik,ted
To vendor a Python package, run ``mach vendor python [PACKAGE]``, where
``[PACKAGE]`` is one or more package names along with a version number in the
format ``pytest==3.5.1``. The package will be installed, transient dependencies
will be determined, and a ``requirements.txt`` file will be generated with the
full list of dependencies. The requirements file is then used with ``pip`` to
download and extract the source distributions of all packages into the
``third_party/python`` directory.

If you're familiar with ``Pipfile`` you can also directly modify this in the in
the top source directory and then run ``mach vendor python`` for your changes
to take effect. This allows advanced options such as specifying alternative
package indexed (see below), and
`PEP 508 specifiers <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0508/>`_.§
