demandimport: pass proper level to __import__ in Python 3

demandimport was failing in Python 3 with a ValueError because
__import__'s level=-1 has gone away (-1 means to try both relative
and absolute imports and relative imports don't exist in Python 3).

With this patch, demandimport still doesn't work in Python 3 (it
fails when importing a non-package module).
