published wheels would be really helpful

[strangemonad]

Proposed change

publish both source and wheel dists for nats.py

Use case

This is essentially the same request as nats-io/nkeys.py#9

We're standing up a biotech manufacturing line using nats as a core component. One of the devices we're using is an embedded linux device https://opentrons.com/products/flex/. It's running CPython 3.8 with an old version of pip and setuptools. The current source dist requires a newer version of setup tools as the build backend, wheels install fine since they have a pre-defined installation layout. I'm able to install new packages but the pre-existing python site-packages live on a read-only file system mount so it would require a bunch of gymnastics to get an upgraded setuptools installed.

we're also a paying synadia cloud customer if that helps to make a case to prioritize this fix

Contribution

potentially if it can't be prioritized internally.
