Jim Mussared 42f3f66431 py/builtinimport: Handle empty sys.path correctly. ...

If sys.path is enabled, but empty, this will now no longer search the
filesystem. Previously an empty sys.path was equivalent to having
`sys.path=[""]`. This is a breaking change, but this behavior now matches
CPython.

This also provides an alternative mechanism to the u-prefix to force an
import of a builtin module:

```
import sys
_path = sys.path[:]
sys.path.clear()
import foo  # Forces the built-in foo.
sys.path.extend(_path)
del _path
```
