hgdemandimport: apply lazy module loading to sys.meta_path finders Python's `sys.meta_path` finders are the primary objects whose job it is to find a module at import time. When `import` is called, Python iterates objects in this list and calls `o.find_spec(...)` to find a `ModuleSpec` (or None if the module couldn't be found by that finder). If no meta path finder can find a module, import fails. One of the default meta path finders is `PathFinder`. Its job is to import modules from the filesystem and is probably the most important importer. This finder looks at `sys.path` and `sys.path_hooks` to do its job. The `ModuleSpec` returned by `MetaPathImporter.find_spec()` has a `loader` attribute, which defines the concrete module loader to use. `sys.path_hooks` is a hook point for teaching `PathFinder` to instantiate custom loader types. Previously, we injected a custom `sys.path_hook` that told `PathFinder` to wrap the default loaders with a loader that creates a module object that is lazy. This approach worked. But its main limitation was that it only applied to the `PathFinder` meta path importer. There are other meta path importers that are registered. And in the case of PyOxidizer loading modules from memory, `PathFinder` doesn't come into play since PyOxidizer's own meta path importer was handling all imports. This commit changes our approach to lazy module loading by proxying all meta path importers. Specifically, we overload the `find_spec()` method to swap in a wrapped loader on the `ModuleSpec` before it is returned. The end result of this is all meta path importers should be lazy. As much as I would have loved to utilize .__class__ manipulation to achieve this, some meta path importers are implemented in C/Rust in such a way that they cannot be monkeypatched. This is why we use __getattribute__ to define a proxy. Also, this change could theoretically open us up to regressions in meta path importers whose loader is creating module objects which can't be monkeypatched. But I'm not aware of any of these in the wild. So I think we'll be safe.
