Rob Crittenden 262ff2d731 Rename ipa-python directory to ipapython so it is a real python library
We used to install it as ipa, now installing it as ipapython. The rpm
is still ipa-python.

This is a set of libraries common to IPA clients and servers though mostly
geared currently towards command-line tools.
A brief overview:
config.py - identify the IPA server domain and realm. It uses dnsclient to
try to detect this information first and will fall back to
/etc/ipa/ipa.conf if that fails.
dnsclient.py - find IPA information via DNS
ipautil.py - helper functions
radius_util.py - helper functions for Radius
entity.py - entity is the main data type. User and Group extend this class
(but don't add anything currently).
ipavalidate.py - basic data validation routines
