ChimeraX PyPi broken without nogui module

Description

Because sessions initialize the GUI by themselves, either the Qt GUI or the NoGUI module must be present for session.__init__ to work. However, both modules are excluded from the PyPi package per our mandate to keep GUI code out of it. Initializing the GUI should be handled by core.__init__.

We are coming off the idea of releasing PyPi packages and warming up to a dockerized, GUI-less ChimeraX. That should be the target for scripting projects going forward.
