//       Class : P3DPythonRun
// Description : This class is used to run, and communicate with,
//               embedded Python in a sub-process.  It is compiled and
//               launched as a separate executable from the p3d_plugin
//               dll, because that's the only way Windows can launch a
//               sub-process, and also because it makes it possible to
//               compile-time link with Panda and Python, instead of
//               having to go through the clumsy dynamic-loading
//               interface.
//
//               Communication is via XML files exchanged via
//               anonymous pipes from the parent process.  This isn't
//               terribly eficient, of course, but it's easy; and it's
//               a fairly low-bandwidth channel so efficiency is not
//               paramount.
//
//               This executable is not designed to stand alone; it is
//               designed to be invoked only by p3d_plugin.
