Allow to load pages from package

[rnestler]

This allows to load the pages from an imported python package which is recursively scanned. This is useful if one compiles an application using Cython where the modules are then not .py files anymore, but compiled .so files.

In our application we compile everything with Cython in the end, to get some performance gains. Since the current implementation of the pages feature only searches for .py files in the pages folder I worked around it in our application using this approach.

Would this be a feature of general interest? IMO it is nice, since the implementation is way simpler and it uses built in tools to load the modules.

Would the solution in this PR work? https://github.com/plotly/dash/pull/2392

It's been available for a while but didn't get documented.

When running inside a package and the name param of the Dash instance is set to package, the module name of auto imported Pages modules will now be prefixed with the package name. ie myproj/pages/page1.py -> myproj.pages.page1 (previously would have been pages.page1). Fixes https://github.com/plotly/dash/issues/2263
