Cibuildwheel

[Korijn]

This PR leverages cibuildwheel to handle creation of wheels, including macos arm64.

Checks 1 box in #136 as this works around the missing Apple Silicon runners on CI.

This PR makes the build configuration PEP517 and pypa/build compatible, allowing the pip wheel command to be used by cibuildwheel.

So to summarize, all the following commands are now legal:

• python setup.py bdist_wheel
• pip wheel --no-deps .
• cibuildwheel --platform <plat>

Nice!

One question: where is it defined what build are made exactly? E.g. why does it not try to build linux_arm64. Or phrased differently, what would we change when we have wgpu-native builds for linux_arm_64?

See pyproject.toml, I've used the build and archs options. Related docs: https://cibuildwheel.readthedocs.io/en/stable/options/#build-skip

To build more linux archs you would set the archs option for linux in pyproject.toml, as I've done for mac.

Ah, so now it's using the default, which is x86_64 and i686 for Linux?

Indeed!

Simplified the sdist-build job and fixed a bug in the publish job where it didn't depend on the sdist-build job. Should be good to go!
