Installation with 3.10 pip deprecation warning

[Germanunkol]

Hey, thanks a lot for this module!

I've used it successfully with python3.9, however when trying to install for python3.10, I get the following error:

./python3.10 -m pip install --upgrade PyMCubes

Collecting PyMCubes
  Using cached PyMCubes-0.1.2.tar.gz (42 kB)
  Preparing metadata (setup.py) ... done
Installing collected packages: PyMCubes
  DEPRECATION: PyMCubes is being installed using the legacy 'setup.py install' method, because it does not have a 'pyproject.toml' and the 'wheel' package is not installed. pip 23.1 will enforce this behaviour change. A possible replacement is to enable the '--use-pep517' option. Discussion can be found at https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8559

note: This is an issue with the package mentioned above, not pip.
hint: See above for output from the failure.

Using the mentioned flag --use-pep517 seems to be an option, but this then tries to build from source (if I understand correctly) which doesn't work on my system at the moment (because python3.10-dev is not available).

Hi @Germanunkol,

I have just released a new version of PyMCubes that includes a modern build system (pyproject.toml) and binary packages for multiple platforms. To install it, run the following command:

./python3.10 -m pip install --upgrade PyMCubes --no-cache-dir

If everything goes as expected, this command will install the binary package for your platform and will not require building it from source.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you find any issue.
