bpo-45019: Add a tool to generate list of modules to include for frozen modules (gh-27980)
Frozen modules must be added to several files in order to work properly. Before this change this had to be done manually. Here we add a tool to generate the relevant lines in those files instead. This helps us avoid mistakes and omissions. https://bugs.python.org/issue45019
