[Pulp-dev] PyPI names for Pulp3

+1 pulpproj
-0 pulpproject
-0 pulp_platform
-1 plp
-1 pulp3

Also I'm +1 to having the top level namespace (the name above) contain the
subnamespaces i.e. 'platform', 'common', 'streamer', and 'cli'. So that
would be a 'yes' to [0].

[0]: https://pulp.plan.io/issues/2444#Will-all-packages-install-
under-a-top-level-directory-or-not

Thanks for pushing this forward.
