publish pre-build wheels (manylinux)

[ssbarnea]

As a note, github actions can be used to produce binaries for almost any platform, including arm64. There is no need to cover all platforms, including linux and macos x64 would probably already cover most use case. Once the project has

I was hoping for a publish.sh where it would run ...
