[pygame] py2exe updates

["Pete Shinners" <pete@visionart.com>]

A new release of "py2exe" was released today also. This is
the handy tool that converts python scripts into executables.

i've upgraded the small pygame2exe script that helps handle
all the arguments for py2exe, as well as make sure all the
pygame files are correctly added.

new features allow you to change the icon of the executable,
and a new variable to automatically copy your directories
of graphics/sound/etc into the final executable directory.

i've also updated the small executable tutorial to cover these
changes.

last, but not least, i've upgraded the standalone aliens game
to use all the latest tools. this new aliens standalone includes
a few more .DLL files, so it is a little bigger. the upshot being
it will run on everyone's machines.

here's the stack of urls.
