The `initialize_sys_path` is the function responsible of getting the
custom Odoo import hooks to work, i.e. addons import via
`import odoo.addons`. This function is called by some other module
related functions to ensure the paths are correctly setup. We are
confident it is useless to re-initialize the path in many places.
The `load_openerp_module` function is called during server bootup by
both `odoo-bin server` and `odoo-bin shell`, both command parse the
configuration before starting the server which initialize the paths
already.
Most call to `get_module`, `get_module_path` and `get_resource_path` are
done in models or controllers where a registry is setup already. There
is one notable exception which is the subcommand discovery done during
the bootup, for that specific case, we initialize the paths with a
partially loaded configuration.
