PEP518 might give us build and install hooks to obsolete socranop-installtool

[ndim]

It might be possible that PEP518 style pyproject.toml provides us with hooks into the build (python -m build) and install (python -m install) steps to run our own code to adapting and installing files.

This could make socranop-installtool mostly to completely obsolete.

Some things to check:

• compatibility with our minimum Python version
• compatibility with pipenv install --dev type editable development installations (I would not want to lose the editable development installation)
• what about installing to arbitrary locations outside of our $prefix, e.g. to /etc/udev/rules.d/ for installs to $HOME/.local?

This is probably a post 0.5 thing.
