[Catalog-sig] Can PyPI have a new field that stores the code repository URL?

Projects have home pages, they also have Repos but that is not on
PyPI. For the forthcoming Python Packages
(https://github.com/cartwheelweb/packaginator) having this field would
mean gathering metrics on those projects would be great. Otherwise we
have to check 10K+ records. I know that the data will be entered in
eventually, but eventually we'll have the canonical repo source for a
greater majority of projects..
