[New-bugs-announce] [issue15600] expose the finder details used by the FileFinder path hook

[Eric Snow]

New submission from Eric Snow:

The path hook associated with importlib.machinery.FileFinder hides away its loader details in a closure.  This is less than ideal for the purposes of introspection and general hacking.

Here's a simple patch that exposes the loader details as an attribute on the path hook.

This came up in issue 15576 (see msg167632).
