Create pypi-publish action

[kushalkolar]

adds pypi publish action, you'll need to add the PYPI_API_TOKEN secret to the repo though.

This is actually done by the release.py script, but when I ran it a few days ago, the pypi upload failed and I did not see:

Uploading distributions to https://upload.pypi.org/legacy/
ERROR    InvalidDistribution: Metadata is missing required fields: Name, Version.
         Make sure the distribution includes the files where those fields are specified, and is using a supported Metadata-Version: 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3.
Success!

That last "Success" was wrong 😕

Ah I didn't notice that! Curious, is this something you run locally or does it run on a build server?

I just run it locally. If something goes wrong its easier to fix and adjust.

Looks like the pypi upload is not the only thing that went wrong. Looks like not all changed version numbers were actually comitted ... oh boy

I fixed the script and re-released 😅

Thanks for the effort. The idea to automate this step is tempting, but I rather do the whole release process either completely locally or completely on CI.
