Generate sdist by hand

This updates the perspective-python build to create an sdist tarball by
hand, not going through `maturin sdist`. This bypasses some issues we
have seen with Maturin mispackaging the perspective Cargo workspace in
the sdist.

Maturin is still used as the `build-backend` to build a wheel from the
sdist.  CI still uses `maturin build` to build wheels.  Local
development builds still use `maturin develop`.

The sdist now includes the .data directory so that Maturin will place it
in the wheel correctly.  Building an sdist with PSP_BUILD_SDIST=1 will
now error if it appears the jupyterlab plugin was not built into the
.data directory.

Most of the work is in generating a PKG-INFO file.  Its output matches
what's in the 3.1.2 sdist on pypi, minus a correction to fix the
`Home-page` field miscapitalized by Maturin and some unimportant
whitespace changes in `Require-Dist`.
