Through discussing inside or outside the mailing list on this bug tracker, 
current 'develop' has been made a kind of command other than an action. But 
there still isn't a consensus of the concrete implemention way, so I keep this 
command name as 'develop' and the simple usage of this command is :

pysetup run develop

BTW, most developers in this list have agreed that 'develop' is a kind of 
install command, so I also add an entry funtion 'install_editable' for it, like 
'install_local_project' for the 'install_dist' command. In addition, current 
patch also supports several ways to run the 'develop' which is learned from the 
source code of install.py. When installing, there are three ways, 
'_run_packaging_install', '_run_setuptools_install', and 
'_run_distutils_install', so here for develop command, there are two ways, 
'_run_packaging_develop' and '_run_setuptools_develop'. You can know more 
through the source code and docs in this patch.

BTW, should way convert the .egg-info directory to .dist-info directory?
