[Python-mode] python-mode.el partial rewrite

[Barry Warsaw]

Hi Andreas,

I don’t have any strong opinions, except that I do use python-mode.el in a kind of weird way.  I never byte compile it, always loading from the .el in my emacs init files.  I got into this habit ages ago when VCSes couldn’t automatically byte compile files when you updated your local repos (and Emacs .elc files aren’t like Python’s .pyc files, since they don’t get auto-generated when the .el file is newer).
