[PyQt] Help needed for eric6 development - support setup.py

[Kyle Altendorf]

AFAIK wheels don't run anything.  That's one of the good things about 
them.  They just have data that can be put in the right place or 
otherwise processed.  Then installation doesn't involve arbitrary code 
execution.  The result is that all the custom stuff happens when 
creating the wheel.

I personally use versioneer to manage getting version info from git into 
Python.  Though some think it's important to have the version committed 
into the repo.

Cheers,
