Ivan ca8b128aa1 credstash: add standalone Python application (#51807)
credstash was only available as a library. Provide it as a standalone
application as well.

In order for this to work, I needed to remove the copy of
the library that's placed in $out/bin and marked executable
during the install phase. Other than the patched shebang and
executable bit, it's identical to the library that's installed to
$out/lib/python3.7/site-packages.

Before the postFixup has run `wrapPythonPrograms`, $out/bin contains
two Python files -- credstash and credstash.py -- where bin/credstash
is the executable you'd expect a user to invoke from the command-line
and bin/credstash.py contains the credstash module, which bin/credstash
imports.

After `wrapPythonPrograms` has run, bin/credstash is a shell
wrapper around the bin/.credstash-wrapped python entrypoint, and
bin/credstash.py is shell wrapper around bin/.credstash.py-wrapped.
Invoking bin/credstash execs bin/.credstash-wrapped, and that python
script attempts to import the credstash module from bin/credstash.py,
the shell wrapper, rather than either bin/.credstash.py-wrapped or
lib/python3.7/site-packages/credstash.py.

This leads to an error:

    $ credstash get mykey
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/nix/store/hk6yma716w6141lcdh509d6qyyi7zm0i-python3.7-credstash-1.15.0/bin/.credstash-wrapped", line 8, in <module>
        from credstash import main
      File "/nix/store/hk6yma716w6141lcdh509d6qyyi7zm0i-python3.7-credstash-1.15.0/bin/credstash.py", line 2

                  ^
    SyntaxError: invalid syntax

If we try using `dontWrapPythonPrograms` to resolve this, runtime
dependency lookups fail:

    $ credstash get mykey
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/run/current-system/sw/bin/credstash", line 7, in <module>
        from credstash import main
      File "/nix/store/8rmldlvlv1z1xl7w02dy7f5qhkzdrg8z-python3.7-credstash-1.15.0/bin/credstash.py", line 26, in <module>
        import boto3
    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'boto3'

I was able to resolve things by simply removing bin/credstash.py before
the postFixup phase has a chance to wrap any executables. Now the
executable imports the library correctly:

 (shell wrapper)
  bin/credstash
        │      (python executable)
        └─> bin/.credstash-wrapped
                   │                        (python library)
                   └─> lib/python3.7/site-packages/credstash.py
