python*-setuptools: add separate packages for pkg_resources module
The pkg_resources Python module is useful by itself, for example for automatic loading of resources shipped in a Python package. Add separate packages for it, so that users can depend on them individually and avoid pulling in the entire setuptools, which include scripts to download other packages, which might not be desired on minimal images. Other distributions like Debian and Ubuntu already split setuptools and pkg-resources in this way. The setuptools packages now depend on the new pkg-resources packages, to avoid regressions for other packages that depend on them already.
