* Remove unnecessary "setup.py" mechanism for initializing extensionsEike Ziller2018-09-171-7/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | There already is the requirements.txt mechanism that takes care of pip installing in the right way. Setup for which this is not sufficient should be possible to do in the initialization code of the extension directly. Additionally the provided example was broken (e.g. didn't work with spaces in paths), and the whole mechanism had the encapsulation problem that the extensions themselves had before they were made modules/packages.

* Fix encapsulation of pluginsEike Ziller2018-09-141-16/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes that triggering "About Python Extensions" action resulted in python runtime error "TypeError: must be type, not None" when referencing PySide2.QtWidgets. To improve encapsulation of plugins, all modules that they loaded were deleted after their main.py finished running. This breaks if these modules were accessed later e.g. triggered by actions. Instead of this hack, ensure encapsulation of plugins by making them actual Python packages. Qt Creator's python extension path is added to python's module search path, and extensions are simply imported as packages. The python extension's main.py simply becomes a standard python module __init__.py. This also means that python extensions can depend on, and use other python extensions' functionality by importing them with "import".

This is a quite large commit containing: * The main extension that runs and initializes Python * Some (example) bindings * An initial build script for the main extension * Optional binding and examples of how to create them * An initial build script for the optional bindings * A simple extension manager written in Python * A few example Python extensions * Some documentation (both in the code and as markdown files) * A collection of helpful python scripts * A small collection of unit tests * A TODO list For any additional details the code / docs should be consulted.
