hawktracer Hawktracer on PyPi still on version 0.6.0

Hi, when doing a pip install hawktracer one still gets the 0.6.0 version, see https://pypi.org/project/HawkTracer/ . An update there would be nice.

After talking to Marcin, I'm working on this now.

@andreasbuhr I'm not sure if you had a chance to look into this; I just found the manylinux project which seems to help to build wheels packages for various python versions on different Linux platforms. Probably worth looking closer to it, and maybe have a script (similar to example script) to auto-generate packages. What are your thoughts about it?

Hi @loganek, it's still on my stack, but so far I did not find the time. I've seen many python packages using manylinux, so I think it would be the way to go. I think it would be a good idea to include wheel generation in the Travis pipeline.

What operating systems and what Python versions do we want to provide binaries for? I'd propose Windows and Linux, Python 2 and Python 3. @loganek what do you think?

@andreasbuhr thanks for getting back. I think supporting Python 3 and Linux would be a priority, but long term I see us supporting Windows and macOS as well. Not sure whether python2 is needed though; this is already a deprecated version. If supporting python2 requires extra effort on our side, I'd recommend not doing it; if we can get that support for free though, I think it's ok to have that :)

Btw. are you planning to release both client and core packages at the same time, or just one of them first?
