Add support for using `bdist_nuitka` without setup.py, i.e. pure pyproject setup

See original GitHub issue

One can build Nuitka’d wheels via

python3 setup.py bdist_nuitka

Is it possible to do the same in a PEP 517/518 setting, i.e., without a setup.py, but with a setup.cfg and a pyproject.toml,

[build-system]
requires = ["setuptools>=42", "wheel"]
build-backend = "setuptools.build_meta"

Yup, seems to work, less than 20 lines of code. I will write something for the User Manual as part of my roadmap action for the standard thing, but basically you need to put this:

requires = ["setuptools>=42", "wheel", "nuitka"]
build-backend = "nuitka.distutils.Build"

The build backend will be part of 0.6.18 likely. I need to figure out test integration still.
