Could not build wheels for halotools, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

Thanks for pointing this out @Firestar-Reimu. For the 0.8 release I focused on linux and mac os system builds, mostly because I wasn't aware of many windows-based halotools users. I can make an effort to get wheels working for windows for the next release, but in the meantime, for a workaround, do you have access to a machine (or just a partition on your current machine) with either linux or mac os?

I have both linux and windows installed and I found that halotools cannot be downloaded via pip on windows.

pip   windows No
pip   linux   Yes
conda windows Yes
conda linux   Yes

but mysteriously, windows + pip + python 3.11 is OK

(I do not use python 3.11 because h5py do not support it)
