Python: Fix determining plugins for old packages (#15576)
The Python language host determines which Pulumi plugins are required by
the program by calling out to `python -m pip list -v -format json` to
get the list of installed packages. If a package contains a
`pulumi-plugin.json` file that indicates it is for a resource plugin,
then that package is considered a Pulumi package that has an associated
plugin.

As a fallback for older packages that do not have a `pulumi-plugin.json`
file, if the package name is prefixed with `pulumi-`, it is also
considered to have an associated Pulumi plugin.

However, this fallback no longer works when using recent versions of
setuptools because of a behavior change in v69.0.3 and later of
setuptools. Previously, underscores were replaced by dashes. So `python
-m pip list --format json` would return the name of the package as:

```
{"name": "pulumi-cloudinit", "version": "1.3.0"}
```

But now with setuptools v69.0.3 and later, it returns the name as
pulumi_cloudinit (with an underscore rather than dash):

```
{"name": "pulumi_cloudinit", "version": "1.3.0"}
```

The underscore in the name is now preserved and the name is no longer
prefixed with pulumi-, so the langhost no longer considers it to have an
associated Pulumi plugin.

This commit fixes the fallback to consider packages prefixed by either
`pulumi_` or `pulumi-` to be Pulumi packages.

Pulumi Python SDK

The Pulumi Python SDK (pulumi) is the core package used when writing Pulumi programs in Python. It contains everything that youll need in order to interact with Pulumi resource providers and express infrastructure using Python code. Pulumi resource providers all depend on this library and express their resources in terms of the types defined in this module.

The Pulumi Python SDK requires a supported version of Python.

note: pip is required to install dependencies. If you installed Python from source, with an installer from python.org, or via Homebrew you should already have pip. If Python is installed using your OS package manager, you may have to install pip separately, see Installing pip/setuptools/wheel with Linux Package Managers. For example, on Debian/Ubuntu you must run sudo apt install python3-venv python3-pip.

Getting Started

The fastest way to get up and running is to choose from one of the following Getting Started guides: -aws -microsoft azure -google cloud -kubernetes

Pulumi Programming Model

The Pulumi programming model defines the core concepts you will use when creating infrastructure as code programs using Pulumi. Architecture & Concepts describes these concepts with examples available in Python. These concepts are made available to you in the Pulumi SDK.

The Pulumi SDK is available to Python developers as a Pip package distributed on PyPI . To learn more, refer to the Pulumi SDK Reference Guide.

The Pulumi programming model includes a core concept of Input and Output values, which are used to track how outputs of one resource flow in as inputs to another resource. This concept is important to understand when getting started with Python and Pulumi, and the [Inputs and Outputs] (https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/inputs-outputs/)documentation is recommended to get a feel for how to work with this core part of Pulumi in common cases.

The Pulumi Python Resource Model

Like most languages usable with Pulumi, Pulumi represents cloud resources as classes and Python programs can instantiate those classes. All classes that can be instantiated to produce actual resources derive from the pulumi.Resource class.
