manifest: add some documentation to _lazymanifest python code

It was not particularly easy figuring out the design of this class and keeping
track of how the pieces work.  So might as well write some of it down for the
next person.

"""Lazy loading for Python 3.6 and above.

This uses the new importlib finder/loader functionality available in Python 3.5
and up. The code reuses most of the mechanics implemented inside importlib.util,
but with a few additions:

* Allow excluding certain modules from lazy imports.
* Expose an interface that's substantially the same as demandimport for
  Python 2.

This also has some limitations compared to the Python 2 implementation:

* Much of the logic is per-package, not per-module, so any packages loaded
  before demandimport is enabled will not be lazily imported in the future. In
  practice, we only expect builtins to be loaded before demandimport is
  enabled.
