[issue2446] 2to3 translates "import foobar" to "import .foobar" rather than "from . import foobar"

Looking at it, I was confused by a quirk introduced into test_fixers:
Test_import's check_both() helper method does the wrong thing in this case:

a = "import os"
self.check_both(a, a)  # Fails, tries to translate "import os" into
"from . import os"

self.unchanged(a) passes, though. What's going on with these methods?
