Avoid considering sys.path for distributions

When looking up a distribution to install an egg, keep strictly to
the provided index-url and find-links and do not use distributions
that are already on sys.path.

This change was introduced because of a situation where installing
an egg failed due to a bad distribution somehow available inside a
virtual environment. Could not remember how to reproduce.
