(#80129)
This patch creates a thin wrapper around the `setuptools`' PEP 517
build backend in-tree. It features an ability to request generating
the manpage files in the process of building a source distribution.
This toggle is implemented using the `config_settings` mechanism of
PEP 517.
One must explicitly pass it a CLI option to the build front-end to
trigger said behavior. The packagers are expected to use the
following call:
python -m build --config-setting=--build-manpages
This option has no effect on building wheels.
🧪 The change includes integration tests
This test runs building and re-building sdists and wheels with and
without the `--build-manpages` config setting under the
oldest-supported and new `setuptools` pinned.
It is intended to preserve the interoperability of the packaging setup
across Python runtimes.
An extra smoke test also verifies that non PEP 517 interfaces remain functional.
