Make imports modular #222

This PR should be considered as an example. My issue is that I would like to use SIFT with python3. Sift uses a couple of functionalities from pattern but I don't want to install mysql on my machine just to use pattern.

I was wondering if we could use extra_requires to maybe define a core pattern without the extra functionalities?
