[IronPython] Contents of Lib (packaging for RPM)

[Dino Viehland]

In the case of IronPython the script is just pulling the files from
Languages/IronPython/StdLib/StdLib.pyproj so you could just go straight
to that MSbuild file to get the list of files to use.

StdLib.pyproj is generated from Languages/IronPython/StdLib/MakeModuleList.py
which you could run on Linux to see if there's any differences between the 
modules which can be successfully imported.
