[stdlib-sig] the "py" prefix

With the stricter distinction between absolute and relative imports,
isn't all this discussion a bit obsolete ?

If you want to import the builtin "types" module:
	import types
If you want to import the local "types" module:
	from . import types

I don't see the need for a "py" prefix.
