Python tooling

datalad-next comprises a number of more-or-less self-contained mini-packages providing particular functionality. These implementations are candidates for a migration into the DataLad core package, and are provided here for immediate use. If and when components are migrated, transition modules will be kept to prevent API breakage in dependent packages.
