setup.py vs pyproject.toml

[jared321]

The package currently has both a pyproject.toml file and a setup.py file in place. The former contains the majority of the package specification; the latter, content for converting a single .pyx file to a Python module in the package.

According to the Cython docs, using setup.py is the recommended method. Evaluate the possibility of using just or the other but not both.

Note that the source distribution and binary wheels presently contain files such as documentation, example code, GH actions, etc. Is this as intended or can we remove those?

I believe we should remove non-codebase files from the source distribution and binary wheels.

FWIW, at one point __init__.py is included in tests/ and will take up the tests namespace. Those were removed.
