Make core datafinder modules usable by jython interpreter.

Registered by Tobias Schlauch

The following modules should also work with jython 2.7 or higher:
-scipt_api
-core
-persistence

The following used libraries could cause some trouble:
-usage of the open method of a zip archive created by zipfile module
-expat xml parser -> Works as the WebDAV library is fully supported on Jython
-win32 (link creation, determination of devices)
-paramiko (sftp: put, get; ssh)
-ldap (only search features are used)
-subversion back-end -> already implemented for both CPython and Jython

They should be replaced by Java libraries when used with jython.
For instance paramiko could be replaced by jaramiko.
Additionally, some broken test have to be fixed.

Whiteboard

=> Currently, there are no plans to make this available for Jython:
      * There is no practical use case
      * In some cases there is a quite heavy maintenance effort (e.g., SVN support)
