MAINT: Use pathlib to manage paths #83

This is still WIP and I'm still not a 100% sure if we should do this as it seems like setuptools Extension itself doesn't really support Path objects. The src paths needs to be strings https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/ext_modules.html#setuptools.Extension

I think doc warning is related: extension_helpers/_utils.py:docstring of extension_helpers._utils.write_if_different:1: WARNING: py:class reference target not found: PathLike
