  Description     : Setuptools extension to build and package CMake projects

This extension aims to simplify the integration of C++ projects based on CMake
with Python packaging tools. CMake provides out-of-the-box support to either
SWIG and pybind11, that are two among the most used projects to create Python
bindings from C++ sources.

If you have any experience with these hybrid projects, you know the challenges
to make packaging right! This project takes inspiration from pre-existing
examples (pybind/cmake_example, among many others) and provides a simple,
flexible, and reusable setuptools extension with the following features:

* Bridge between CMake projects and Python packaging
* Configure and build the CMake project from setup.py
* Install the CMake project in the resulting Python package
* Allow passing custom CMake options
* Allow creating a top-level __init__.py
* Expose C++ executables to the Python environment
* Provide a context manager to import CPython modules reliably on all major OSs
* Disable the C++ extension in editable installations (requiring to manually
  call CMake to install the C++ project)

The package will be team-maintained under the umbrella of the
Debian Python Team <team+pyt...@tracker.debian.org>
at https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/cmake-build-extension
