[Distutils] pkg_resources: import string

I was thinking some more about WSGI configuration, and much 
configuration involves some "import a string" routing, that looks like 
importstring("os.path:sep") or somesuch.  But we implement it slightly 
differently.  And maybe there could be a PEP and whatnot, but I don't 
even know what module that would go into, and it would just have to be 
backported for a long time anyway... but then it seemed like it would 
fit nicely into pkg_resources, and just about anywhere I want to import 
strings I expect pkg_resources to be around as well.
