"""\
List python source files.
There are three functions to check whether a file is a Python source, listed
here with increasing complexity:
- has_python_ext() checks whether a file name ends in '.py[w]'.
- look_like_python() checks whether the file is not binary and either has
the '.py[w]' extension or the first line contains the word 'python'.
- can_be_compiled() checks whether the file can be compiled by compile().
The file also must be of appropriate size - not bigger than a megabyte.
walk_python_files() recursively lists all Python files under the given directories.
