Log Message:
Fixes for lazy imports and whenImported().  Previously, a direct import of
a lazily imported module whose parent package wasn't imported (lazily or
otherwise) could cause an error.  Also, setting an attribute of a lazy
module didn't necessarily trigger the module to be imported.  Finally,
whenImported() doesn't create lazy modules until the module's parent is
loaded (except for top-level packages).  This reduces unnecessary clutter
in 'sys.modules', and avoids giving the impression that such modules are
actually present in the system until at least their parent package exists.
