Changes (by daira):

 * milestone:  undecided => 2.0.0

> * rename the {{{src/allmydata/}}} directory to match
> * update the {{{setup.py}}} metadata to match
> * change the name we use for git tags, currently like {{{allmydata-
> tahoe-1.10}}}, maybe to just "1.10" or "v1.10"
> * update the PyPI package, debian/ubuntu packages, etc, if they're using
> the old allmydata-tahoe name

New description:

 Now that allmydata.com has been dead for like 5 years, it's probably time
 to remove "allmydata" from the package name. This means:

 * replace all imports with relative imports (reducing the code impact of a
 rename), which is possible because we now require a python version that
 provides relative imports
 * decide on "tahoe_lafs" or "tahoelafs" or "tahoe" or "TahoeLAFS"
 * rename the {{{src/allmydata/}}} directory to match
 * update the {{{setup.py}}} metadata to match

 See also #2011 for changing the PyPI package name (which is easier).
