⚠️ macOS wheels CI/CD is expected to fail due to a different issue
Even if most of users are building Kivy from source by using the build isolation, we're not doing the same in our CI/CD environment.
With the changes made in #8689 , is now important to make sure we're building everything with the pinned build-time dependencies versions.
This PR does the following:
The source distribution (sdist) is now built with https://github.com/pypa/build, the build frontend by the Python Packaging Authority (PyPA), this allows us to run the packaging into an isolated environment.
The Kivy examples wheel is also now built with pypa/build, for the same exact reason of the sdist
We do not need anymore to manually install setuptools, wheel and Cython. Anywhere. This is handled by build or directly via pip instal . (or cibuildwheel where applicable).
The MakeFile has been updated, now pip install . -e has been used instead of python setup.py --build_ext, so scripts (or users) using the MakeFile will also use isolation during builds.
