Mac OS: reorganize FTE packaging

To finish #13252 (moved) and #6540 (moved), we need to change the way the FTE client is packaged in Tor Browser. Specifically, to meet Apple's Gatekeeper code signing requirements we should put all of the files that do not contain compiled object code (e.g., the Python scripts) under:

TorBrowser.app/Contents/Resources/TorBrowser/Tor/PluggableTransports/fte/

and we should put all of the binaries (compiled executables and shared libraries) under: TorBrowser.app/Contents/MacOS/Tor/PluggableTransports/fte/

Kevin -- it would be very helpful to have your assistance with this task. Kathy and I have limited Python knowledge and very little FTE knowledge.

In email, Kevin said: The first solution that comes to mind is to create two parallel directories, one with scripts and one with compiled code, then ensure that both directories are in sys.path: https://docs.python.org/2/library/sys.html#sys.path. Would that work?

and I replied: It might. We will try it. Assuming it works, another challenge is to automate the process of splitting the script code from the compiled code.

Another small piece of the puzzle: to avoid .pyc files being created under the .app bundle (and breaking our signature), we can set PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1 in the tor script that is used to exec tor.real.

While nice to have it should not block getting OS X signing going.

We won't fix that.
