Currently, accessing data files is harder than it should be, because
_MEIPASS2 is only set in one-file mode; thus, people have to recur to ifs
(also runtime hooks).
The bootloader should export an environment variable called something like
"_PYI_WORKDIR" which points to either the temporary directory in onefile
mode or the directory where the executable is in onedir mode.
