a_magical_me e7c40a08af Speed up import pokedex.db slightly. ...

Importing pokedex can take several seconds due to its rather large
dependencies—in particular, sqlalchemy, whoosh, and pkg_resources seem
to be the largest offenders. Normally, it would be possible to import
only the submodules one needs (pokedex.db, say), but pokedex.__init__
brings in all the submodules, for use by the command-line interface.

The fix is rather obvious:

- Move the command-line stuff into pokedex.main.

  Note: because the submodules are no longer imported by default, any
  script which expects `import pokedex` to be useful will likely break.

  Note: the `pokedex` command will not work until you re-run `python
  setup.py develop`, to update entry_points.txt.

- Don't import pkg_resources until necessary.
