Distribute wheel/built distribution for neo4j driver on Pypi #1061

Feature Request

Hi,

Would you consider releasing wheels for seqeval on Pypi as well as sdist releases?

Pitch

This would make installing neo4j much easier for me in a specific corporate environment (at AstraZeneca, who have an enterprise license), as at the moment, the fact that neo4j requires setuptools at setup causes pip to execute without a proxy when building neo4j, as the proxy isn't passed through with PEP-517 build isolation - see this issue: https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/7805 . If neo4j was distributed as a wheel, this would sidestep the issue (as the package would already be built when downloaded).
