Title:
  autopilot.platform can supercede python library platform module in
  module search path

Status in Autopilot:
  Fix Released
Status in autopilot package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in autopilot source package in Raring:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  We're seeing these failures in the daily-release testing when running python-autopilot-tests [1]:
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/bin/autopilot", line 41, in <module>
      from platform import node
  ImportError: cannot import name node

  I instrumented /usr/bin/autopilot and when this happens, sys.path is:
  sys.path: ['/usr/bin', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/autopilot', '/usr/lib/python2.7', '/usr/lib/python2.7/plat-x86_64-linux-gnu', '/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-old', '/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PILcompat', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0', '/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ubuntu-sso-client', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ubuntuone-client', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ubuntuone-control-panel', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ubuntuone-storage-protocol']

  And an import of platform gives:
  dir platform: ['_PlatformDetector', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '__package__', '_get_property_file', '_parse_build_properties_file', 'exists', 'image_codename', 'model']

  This is because '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/autopilot' is second
  in the search path, before the python libs. I think this happens as a
  result of the autopilot tests creating a test script and running
  autopilot during the autopilot run.

  [Reproduce]
  Run python-autopilot-tests from the raring package.
