Use setuptools to install python files

Now, to reference mininet files, use 'import mininet.mininet'.

PYTHONPATH mods are no longer required for installation.

INSTALL

 - This is not (yet) a 'release'; things may be broken.
 
-- Mininet is not currently 'installed.' If you want to install it,
-  so that you can 'import mininet', place mininet.py somewhere in your
-  python path.
+- To install mininet, with root privileges:
+
+  python setup.py install
+
+  This places the mininet package in /usr/lib/python-2.5/site-packages/,
+  so that 'import mininet' will work.
   
 - A functional netns binary is required to run mininet, but currently you
   have to compile it and install it yourself from the included .c file:
