Include Python wheel releases for `factory_boy>=3.0.0`

See original GitHub issue

Description

Installing factory_boy > 3.0 gives me the following error

Running setup.py (path:/private/var/folders/t0/45yvxfds0gsgyvd3147j2sk00000gp/T/pip-build-uyeee7f3/factory-boy/setup.py) 
egg_info for package factory-boy produced metadata for project name unknown. 
Fix your #egg=factory-boy fragments.

Thus it’s not installed as factory_boy, but as unknown.

OK, now I’ve just noticed, for some reason we haven’t been pushing wheels for the 3.0.1 / 3.0.0 releases!

I’ve just released version 3.1.0 which comes with wheels, this should fix the issue you were encountering.

Please reopen the issue if it isn’t working for you, or if you need a wheel for 3.0.0 / 3.0.1!
