[mod_python] Configuring Apache with mod_python for WSGI

[Grisha Trubetskoy]

That's just normal Python semantics: when a .py file is in a
directory, you import it by using the directory name (which
technically becomes a package name) followed by the file name without
the extension. So in this case we have a directory (package) called
"mysite", and in it a module called "wsgi.py", so in the configuration
we specify is as "mysite.wsgi"
