[Python] SF Bug #1297

Resolve several issues related to python imports.
For example, it's now possible to import modules having the same module
names, but belonging in different packages.

From the user's viewpoint, this patch gives a little bit more control on
import statements generated by SWIG. The user may choose to use relative
or absolute imports.

Some details:
- we (still) generate import statements in the form 'import a.b.c' which
corresponds to absolute imports in python3 and (the only available)
ambiguous one in python2.
- added -relativeimport option to use explicit relative import syntax
(python3),

The "Python Packages" section in the documentation discusses how to work
with importing packages including the new -relativeimport command line option.
