 aagbsn wrote a set of patches to let network tests discover if they need
 the ability to create raw sockets and added instructions for doing setcap
 on the python interpreter binary to enable a user to create raw sockets
 without giving sudo to ooniprobe.

 however, we don't want to ask a user to do this to their system python
 interpreter. what we need is a virtualenv setup script which creates an
 entirely new copy of the python interpreter to use setcap on.
