And add dummy transition package.

What's the rationale behind this change? I guess it's because we generally want to call it nvim instead of neovim?

Isn't the py superfluous?

No. The point is py- allows us to use the same name regardless of "it being a python package" is an implied context or not. There are lots of precedents for python packages with "py" such as numpy/scipy etc.

Right now, the same software is called python-client in neovim contexts, and neovim in python contexts. I've heard several reports on gitter "pip install neovim" being confusing for newcomers, as it looks like they install neovim twice.
