Fixes issue #7187. Thanks, Dave Malcolm for the report and analysis of the
problem.
__package__, it was used. This was incorrect since it could be set to None to
represent the fact that a proper value was unknown. Now None will trigger the

This exception change is specific to importlib.__import__() and does not apply to
import_module() as it is being done for compatibility reasons only.

implementations of get_filename in terms of source_path and bytecode_path.

__import__ works, it prevents any implicit semantics from taking hold with

(mostly stuff specified by PEP 302). There are two ABCs, PyLoader and
PyPycLoader, which help with implementing source and source/bytecode loaders by
implementing load_module in terms of other methods. This removes a lot of
gritty details loaders typically have to worry about.
