Description

When we first added appdirs to RBTools, we vendored the file into our
tree because they were not providing builds on PyPI. This changed a long
time ago, so there's no good reason for us to continue to ship our own,
outdated copy.

Testing Done

Ran unit tests.

I know they haven't changed it in a while, but we've been bitten too many times lately by a breaking version change. We should tie this to a version range. ~=1.4.4 is probably safer.
