Include source distribution

See original GitHub issue

According to https://pypi.org/project/flask-rest-api/#files this library currently only provides wheels to PyPI. Best practice is to upload source distributions as well. Fixing should just be a matter of running python setup.py sdist upload.

Thanks for maintaining flask-rest-api, hope to try it soon! (Would have tried it already if not for this issue, which makes it harder for me to use it on some internal infrastructure.)

I added a MANIFEST.in file to include all needed files in the source distribution.

I also modified .travis.yml to deploy sdist and bdist_wheel to PyPI on tag publication. I got this .travis.yml throught trial and error, so anyone knowledgeable, please suggest improvements.

0.9.2 release has both sdist and bdist_wheel.
