Add setuptools support for bzr and Launchpad

Registered by Barry Warsaw

From http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools

Automatically find/download/install/upgrade dependencies at build time using the EasyInstall tool, which supports downloading via HTTP, FTP, Subversion, and SourceForge, and automatically scans web pages linked from PyPI to find download links. (It's the closest thing to CPAN currently available for Python.)

We should add support, probably in the form of a setuptools plugin, for bzr and Launchpad to do things similar to what setuptools already does for svn and SF.
