(Whiteboard: [mozbase][good first bug][mentor=jhammel][lang=py][mozharness+talos]) 

setuptools does not install pageloader.xpi when called from
easy_install and the like.  This is because a call to bdist_egg is
made in the intermediary call is made to make a `bdist_egg` and then
the dependencies and installation process is done separately.

I think this can be gotten around by wrapping `setuptools.setup` in
our function and doing the right thing there.
This would be pretty easy for someone that sorta knew setuptools
