Meta-package to install entire stdlib #47

It would be nice to create "meta" package to let people install entire stdlib in "one go" - it would be devoid of actual Python source, but depend on all other packages belonging to stdlib.

This probably will requires some experimenting to get it right, but otherwise the biggest issue is how to name such module. Choices are:

  • micropython-all - very intuitive and easy to remember, but thinking further, may get confusing, because it won't really install some abstract "all", but merely stdlib. Would also conflict with "all.py" module packaged (which is unlikely to appear in natural way, but still).
  • micropython-meta-all - less intuitive, but way to disambiguate "all.py" module.
  • micropython-stdlib - less intuitive than "all", but then formally correct, but conflicting with implausibke stdlib.py
  • micropython-meta-stdlib - apparently least intuitive of the choices so far, but resolves other issues

Any opinions/other naming ideas?
