Description

django-admin commands currently only support implementation through python modules. It would be useful to support python packages as well. So as an example one could chose to implement a closepoll command in either of the below files:

polls/management/commands/closepoll.py
polls/management/commands/closepoll/__init__.py

This would be useful when a command contains a lot of logic or code and the developer would like the ability to split up the logic into multiple files to make the code base more manageable.

attached is a patch which implements these changes.
