All the basic pieces are now in place. I dropped the fifos in favor of
regular files. I kept the file descriptors to avoid repeatedly opening
and closing the temporary files. I'm happy with the way it is now, we
can proceed with testing.

I did not implement compiling one .py file multiple times for
different Python versions.

The main concern for the current CAS is the suitability of pattern
matching. Is it good enough to just match a part of the path to know
which interpreter to use? It should be good enough for most packages,
but I'm not sure what the corner cases / contrived path names could
be.
