[Catalog-sig] Allowing the upload of .py files at PyPI

Hello

Some tools (setuptools, distribute, zope, pip) use bootstrap files to 
get installed,

In order to have a more secured installation process,  we'd like to be 
able to push those files on PyPI so people can download them through 
https using the PSF certificate.

As Phillip Eby noticed, that requires changing this method 
https://bitbucket.org/loewis/pypi/src/f18ce0fbe947c1ce778761ea81d6704572cebb24/webui.py?at=default#cl-2233

by:

- allowing .py extensions,
- allowing arbitrary file names when they have the .py extension

Any objection if I provide a pull request for this ?

Cheers
Tarek
