What does this PR do?
Get Python's
sys.path
, and use it to check if a check has a Python version, rather than loading it.Motivation
It would allow checking if a check is Python without loading Python, which would unblock checks-agent POC or lazy loading rtloader POC.

Possible Drawbacks / Trade-offs
As is, this doesn't really help, since there is an
io
default check, and also anio
standard library module, so we would always have to start Python to know if it's an actual check or not.We could just hardcode that
io
is an exception and we know it's Go, but it also means break any user using anio
custom check...Additional Notes
I'm only opening this PR to keep tracks of it.
