pip doesn't yet support pyproject.toml does it?

Here is my attempt. The SConstruct (like a Makefile) builds the
extension. The .toml file gives the static metadata. No need to put
the two in the same file.

This topic has been beaten to death. There is no way to cram the
complexities of C extension compilation setup into purely declarative
metadata. Distutils2 tried and failed. Just look at the setup.py files
of some popular projects and imagine all that logic expressed in
declarative metadata.
