[issue15502] Meta path finders and path entry finders are different, but share an ABC

Nick Coghlan added the comment:

The problem with "path importer" is it's just plain *wrong*. That object is
not an importer and thus calling it one makes it much harder to learn the
finder/loader/importer distinctions correctly. "import finder" is only
slightly longer than "importer" and has the huge advantage of *not being
wrong*.
