demandimport: do not raise ImportError for unknown item in fromlist

This is the behavior of the default __import__() function, which doesn't
validate the existence of the fromlist items. Later on, the missing attribute
is detected while processing the import statement.

https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/v2.7.13/Python/import.c#l2575

The comtypes library relies on this (maybe) undocumented behavior, and we
got a bug report to TortoiseHg, sigh.

https://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/thg/issues/4647/

The test added at 26a4e46af2bc verifies the behavior of the import statement,
so this patch only adds the test of __import__() function and works around
CPython/PyPy difference.
