Distribute wheels on PyPI

See original GitHub issue

We can now distribute cocotb as a wheel, except for FLI support (well maybe we can, need to talk to Mentor about that). I suggest we provide the following matrix of wheels at first:

OS
- Linux (manylinux1 supports C++11)
- Mac OS X
- Windows-MinGW
Arch
- x86_64
Python version
- CPython 3.X cp3

These packages should be built and uploaded in CI on release candidate and final releases. May need to investigate distributing with Github to work around the issue of Pypi not supporting nightlies.

Making it a separate extension might do the trick if we cannot reach anybody on the Mentor side. I’ll try to do that, but for the 1.5 release all of that feels too risky, so let’s continue distributing without wheels for now, and pick this discussion up after we have clarity what we can and cannot do with mti.h

Making wheels and supporting the environment in the first place are different efforts, you might be getting ahead of yourself 😄.
