[issue42955] Add sys.module_names: list of stdlib module names (Python and extension modules)

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org> added the comment:

The pants project also uses a list of stdlib module names, similar to isort, to infer dependencies:
https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/tree/master/src/python/pants/backend/python/dependency_inference/python_stdlib

"Pants is a scalable build system for monorepos: codebases containing multiple projects, often using multiple programming languages and frameworks, in a single unified code repository."
