Insert lib/spack/external into sys.path. This avoids cases where the system

python install and lib/spack/external have the same library installed. This
requires modifying the names of some modules in lib/spack/external in cases
where both the system python and backported features of future python versions
(i.e. after 2.6) are used (previously distinguished by "from external import X"
and "import X").
