Skip issuing build_ext when there appears to be no .c/.pyx files.
Since starting setuptools is expensive, this gives a major speedup
to building pure Python packages. If the check misfires, the worst
that can happen is that C extensions will be built serialized.

Call `setup.py build_ext` instead of the wholesale `build` in PEP517
mode. After all, the call is not strictly necessary; it is only done
in order to build C extensions in parallel (PEP517 backend does not
support specifying job count). By skipping the other tasks build
command does (and then

Prefer using "rm -rf build" directly over "setup.py clean -a". This
has three advantages:
1. It is much faster.
2. It works on packages that have broken "setup.py clean",
e.g. dev-python/pydantic.
3. It works on packages that block "setup.py clean" and tell you to use
"git clean" (sic!),

Hi, everyone.
TL;DR I think I came up with a feasible plan towards cleanly removing
dev-python/namespace-* packages that aren't technically needed anymore
with modern versions of Python.
What are namespace packages? Let's take "zope" as an example.
Normally, various subpackages like
