This makes building and distributing the Python bindings independent of
the sources of gpgme. Many of the new files are copied from gpgme to
make the Python bindings a self-contained package. A later commit
re-adds the possibility to build the Python bindings as nested package
together with gpgme.

The "gpg" module is a python interface to the GPGME library:
<https://www.gnupg.org/software/gpgme/>

"gpg" offers two interfaces, one is a high-level, curated, and idiomatic
interface that is implemented as a shim on top of the low-level
interface automatically created using SWIG.

This way we make simple things easy, while still providing the entire
functionality of the underlying library.

  PyME was created by John Goerzen, and maintained, developed, and
  cherished by Igor Belyi, Martin Albrecht, Ben McGinnes, Justus
  Winter, and everyone who contributed to it in any way.

  In 2016 we merged a port of PyME to into the GPGME repository, and
  development will continue there.  Please see the VCS history for the
  list of contributors, and if you do find bugs, or want to contribute,
  please get in touch and help maintain the python gpg bindings.

  Please see the section 'History' further down this document for
  references to previous versions.
