If we remove dist/ before we run release-please this will break the actions

@averikitsch so my understanding is that when we merge this to main because of https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/github-actions/blob/e829c1b7b9c2f632d89189668ec8348f5270bfc3/.github/workflows/release-please.yml#L5 this should be triggered and will proceed to recreate those dists and commit to main, so yes technically we will be broken on main for a couple of minutes (or longer if we run into any errors during dist build on main). I will do a final test after I address the comments above with a fresh fork.

Oh I think I get what you meant, dont remove existing dist, let it autogenerate and commit instead. That would indeed work better, the reason I removed it here is because I was testing that the JIT build for int tests do work. I will re add them back.

Yes this sounds good. Note to self, leave better comments.
