Even though the resources system obsoletes data_files and package_data
(see bug discussion), package_data still exists to allow compatibility
with distutils and thus an easier transition. In setup.py, the values
are lists of glob patterns, so the setup.cfg syntax needed a way to
express multiple values too.
Doc for this option will be added later as part of the big packaging doc
patches. For now, the test serves as example.

Running with regrtest does not show spurious output or unrestored
sys.std* objects; sometimes running with make test is different, I’ll
watch the buildbots.
In addition, update the create module to use logging.
I need this for some tests, and it makes code clearer. This commit also
changes some assertEqual calls to use (actual, expected) order and fix
some pyflakes warnings.
The right-hand part in [extension: foo] is now used as the name of the
extension module. (I changed the separator from = to : and allowed
whitespace to make the sections look nicer.)
The example C extension used the “three.fast_taunt” name, but no “three” parent
was defined in the setup.cfg. This did not cause a failure nor even print a
warning, we may want to change that.
