This patch creates a thin wrapper around the `setuptools`' PEP 517
build backend in-tree. It features an ability to request generating
the manpage files in the process of building a source distribution.
This toggle is implemented using the `config_settings` mechanism of
PEP 517.
One must explicitly pass it a CLI option to the build front-end to
trigger said behavior. The packagers are expected to use the
following call:
python -m build --config-setting=--build-manpages
This option has no effect on building wheels.
🧪 The change includes integration tests
This test runs building and re-building sdists and wheels with and
without the `--build-manpages` config setting under the
oldest-supported and new `setuptools` pinned.
It is intended to preserve the interoperability of the packaging setup
across Python runtimes.
An extra smoke test also verifies that non PEP 517 interfaces remain functional.

In short, it enables portage module to emit emerge
command with --jobs and --load-average options
with and without argument.
To emit emerge with such CLI argument without
a value, the user must set the corresponding
module option to 0.
By default, if these arguments are missing from
playbook they are omitted.
Misc changes:
* Use to_native to ensure crosspython compat
* Adjust jobs and LA options to accept 0 as reset
* Add docstring to emerge_packages
* Explicitly note in doc that False will work as 0
