Tell Wheel to generate platform and interpreter specific wheelspr/194

By telling wheel that we have extension modules, even though we
have none, wheel will create a Wheel which is platform and
interpreter specific. This will ensure that the pure Python wheels
on PyPy do not trigger installs on CPython without the C speedups.
