+ Return an importer object for a :data:`sys.path`/:attr:`pkg.__path__` item
+ *path*, possibly by fetching it from the :data:`sys.path_importer_cache`
+ dict. If it wasn't yet cached, traverse :data:`sys.path_hooks` until a hook
+ is found that can handle the path item. Return ``None`` if no hook could;
+ this tells our caller it should fall back to the builtin import mechanism.
+ Cache the result in :data:`sys.path_importer_cache`. Return a new reference
+ to the importer object.
