Python and long dll/pyd names

Description

Right now Python in import cuts names to 8.3 on OS/2.
See http://trac.netlabs.org/rpm/browser/python/trunk/Python/import.c#L1516 for reference.
This mostly works, but unfortunately in PyQt4 we have QtScript and QtScriptTools, which are both truncated to the same name. To solve such a situation a symlink would work. And we also need to redo the changes from above link.

This solved generating a 8.3 name for the pyd and a long name symlink.
The 8.3 name is generated using a simple hash of the long name.

python: generate both 8.3 and long names for pyd dynamic libraries. fixes ticket#185.

Also the 8.3 file name hack needs to be removed from import.c; also the case_ok() code now uses the opendir() approach to avoid resolving symlinks (and thus breaking name compare).

remove 8.3 file name truncation, use opendir() to avoid resolving symlinks. ticket#185.
