Monty Taylor 09ee153410 Add a PEP517 interface
pep517 defines a new module method of specifying build backends.
To allow pbr to exist in this world, we should define the interface
that's needed. For this to be used, one will put:

  [build-system]
  requires = ["pbr>=5.7.0", "setuptools>=36.6.0", "wheel"]
  build-backend = "pbr.build"

Into pyproject.toml - and the pep517 interface will be used.

This doesn't really change anything else - it just makes us support this.
So by itself this commit isn't SUPER helpful. But maybe let's take baby
steps with something this prone to strife, yeah?

After this we can start teasing some things apart and doing our
own things directly.

PBR now includes a PEP 517 build-backend and can be used in
pyproject.toml build-system configuration. Setuptools continues
to be the underlying mechanism with PBR acting as a driver via
PEP 517 entrypoints.
