Description

Tried so many packing tool like py2app, pyinstaller etc.
I found that automatic imports hiarachy search is not always perfect.
like I wanna include a lib called PyCryptodome,
if there is a feature like:
pyoxidizer --include-lib ["cryptodome", ...]
then everything like .py, .pyi, .so/dll/dylib etc, all get packed to binary, that would a great problem solver for complex projects.

Research direction

Start by reviewing PyOxidizer's automatic import discovery and packaging behavior, then examine how PyCryptodome's Python and native files are laid out. The requested outcome is an --include-lib option that causes the named library and its .py, .pyi, .so, .dll, and .dylib files to be packed into the binary.
