This patch removes the two drop-down menus from the Rigify addon preferences, replacing it with a checkbox and a UIList.
Before:
{F8766280}
After:
{F8791382}
There is also a small bit of new functionality. The following keys are now recognized in the rigify_info dictionary, similar to Blender addons:
`'link', 'doc_url', 'tracker_url', 'description', 'author', 'version', 'warning'.`
They will be displayed underneath the UIList when the feature set is the active one in the list.
**Ideas for future**
I think this UI better enables us to do some cool things in the future:
- Disable feature sets without uninstalling them.
- Have a base set of feature sets in the list that aren't actually installed. Instead, selecting them would just reveal a button that opens their repository URL. This could be used for officially supported but external feature sets, such as what Legacy should be.
Feedback welcome.

Instead of adding the feature set installation directory
to the global path, and thus inserting the modules into
the top level namespace, add an empty rigify.feature_sets
package and use __path__ to redirect the module loader
to read its sub-modules from the feature set directory.
Now feature set modules are effectively installed into
that package and loaded as 'rigify.feature_sets.foo'.
As an aside, clean up loading code to avoid weird path
manipulations, add more safety checks when installing sets,
and add a way for sets to expose a user-friendly name.
