hgdemandimport: apply lazy module loading to sys.meta_path finders

Python's `sys.meta_path` finders are the primary objects whose job it
is to find a module at import time. When `import` is called, Python
iterates objects in this list and calls `o.find_spec(...)` to find
a `ModuleSpec` (or None if the module couldn't be found by that
finder). If no meta path finder can find a module, import fails.

One of the default meta path finders is `PathFinder`. Its job is to
import modules from the filesystem and is probably the most important
importer. This finder looks at `sys.path` and `sys.path_hooks` to do
its job.

The `ModuleSpec` returned by `MetaPathImporter.find_spec()` has a
`loader` attribute, which defines the concrete module loader to use.
`sys.path_hooks` is a hook point for teaching `PathFinder` to
instantiate custom loader types.

Previously, we injected a custom `sys.path_hook` that told `PathFinder`
to wrap the default loaders with a loader that creates a module object
that is lazy.

This approach worked. But its main limitation was that it only applied
to the `PathFinder` meta path importer. There are other meta path
importers that are registered. And in the case of PyOxidizer loading
modules from memory, `PathFinder` doesn't come into play since
PyOxidizer's own meta path importer was handling all imports.

This commit changes our approach to lazy module loading by proxying
all meta path importers. Specifically, we overload the `find_spec()`
method to swap in a wrapped loader on the `ModuleSpec` before it
is returned. The end result of this is all meta path importers should
be lazy.

As much as I would have loved to utilize .__class__ manipulation to
achieve this, some meta path importers are implemented in C/Rust
in such a way that they cannot be monkeypatched. This is why we
use __getattribute__ to define a proxy.

Also, this change could theoretically open us up to regressions in
meta path importers whose loader is creating module objects which
can't be monkeypatched. But I'm not aware of any of these in the
wild. So I think we'll be safe.

According to hyperfine, this change yields a decent startup time win of
5-6ms:
