The metadata can be version, description, and license.
After executing a manifest, the top-level metadata can be queried, and also
each file output from the manifest will have the metadata of the
containing manifest.
Use the version metadata to "tag" files before freezing such that they have
__version__ available.
By default, don't include micropython-lib/unix-ffi in the search.
If unix_ffi=True is passed to require(), then include unix-ffi and make it
take precedence over the other locations (e.g. python-stdlib).
This does two things:
- Prevents non-unix builds from using unix-only packages.
- Allows the unix build to optionally use a more full-featured (e.g. ffi)
based package, even with the same name as one from e.g. stdlib.

If an include path is a directory, then it implicitly grabs the manifest.py
file inside that directory. This simplifies most manifest.py files.

This splits the manifest file loading logic from makemanifest.py and
updates makemanifest.py to use it.
This will allow non-freezing uses of manifests, such as defining packages
and dependencies in micropython-lib.
Also adds additional methods to the manifest "API":
- require() - to get a package from micropython-lib.
- module() - to define a single-file module
- package() - to define a multi-file package
module() and package() should replace most uses of freeze() and can also
be also used in non-freezing scenarios.
