proposal - move bzrlib down a level

[Robert Collins]

I'd like to propose we move bzrlib from /bzrlib to /lib/bzrlib

The reason for this is simple - it stops us cluttering up the python
import path. At the moment to import bzrlib, other programs set their
python path as PYTHONPATH=....:path-to-bzr-root. This means that
everything we have in the bzr-root is noise that can shadow or otherwise
interfere. It makes it harder for us to have useful non-installed python
scripts in our root dir (because they then shadow legitimate python
packages).

Putting bzrlib in a lib subdirectory wont make it harder for folk using
bzr - it will make it easier. (they have to set their PYTHONPATH
regardless).
