[issue43445] Add frozen modules to sys.stdlib_module_names

> The list of available stdlib modules could change after compiling Python.

It's documented:
"[ sys.stdlib_module_names] is the same on all platforms. Modules which are not 
available on some platforms and modules disabled at Python build are also 
listed."
https://docs.python.org/dev/library/sys.html#sys.stdlib_module_names

Neil Schemenauer: "Not sure the proper place to discuss this but I wonder if 
putting this stdlib module names list in the executable is the best idea."

For the rationale behind sys.stdlib_module_names, please see the bpo-42955 
where alternative were discussed.

[issue43445] Add frozen modules to sys.stdlib_module_names

[Neil Schemenauer]

Neil Schemenauer  added the comment:

Not sure the proper place to discuss this but I wonder if putting this stdlib 
module names list in the executable is the best idea.  The list of available 
stdlib modules could change after compiling Python.  I understand you don't 
want to dynamically crawl the library path the build the list.  That's too 
slow.  However, is there a really strong reason to embed it in the Python 
executable?

Did you consider generating a .py module, containing the list.  E.g. 
"_stdlib_modules.py" inside the lib folder.  Then, you can have site.py or some 
similar startup logic import that module and assign it to 
sys.stdlib_module_names.

[issue43445] Add frozen modules to sys.stdlib_module_names

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor :

The sys.stdlib_module_names documentation says: "All module kinds are listed: 
pure Python, built-in, frozen and extension modules. Test modules are excluded."
https://docs.python.org/dev/library/sys.html#sys.stdlib_module_names

But I just noticed that frozen modules are not listed!

Attached PR fix this issue.
