Refactored extension importing.
We now use importlib which means we no longer support Python 2.6. Also, this refactor properly imports third party extensions which reside at the root of PYTHONPATH. Previously, either `markdown.extensions.` or `mdx_` would be appended to any extension name that did not contain a dot, which required third party extensions to either be in submodules or use the old `mdx_` naming convention. This commit is also in preperation for #336. It will now be much easier to deprecate (and later remove) support for the old ways of handling extension names.
