* python: Add proper support for pyproject.toml-based buildsJeffery To2023-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes the changes made in 61f202c0170785addbbc449e4de61cc5886f0833 and adds actual support for pyproject.toml-based (PEP 517) builds of Python packages. Packages can force the use of the old build process by setting PYTHON3_PKG_FORCE_DISTUTILS_SETUP:=1; this should only be a temporary workaround until the package can be updated/fixed to use the new build process.

* python-build: add support for pyproject.toml filesAlexandru Ardelean2023-01-22
A new PEP 517 (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0517/) has defined that Python packages can be shipped without any `setup.py` file, and that a `pyproject.toml` file is sufficient. A `setup.py` shim layer is suggested as a method for running the build. For these cases, we will add a support in the OpenWrt build-system to provide the default `setup.py` shim layer in case this file does not exist, but there is a `pyproject.toml` file. We also seem to need to tweak the shim layer with the PKG_VERSION, otherwise the detected version is 0.0.0. We will need to see if this will be fixed later in setuptools{-scm}.
