Update sdist specification section to refer to PEP 517 #388

@ncoghlan

Description

@ncoghlan

(Filing as an issue rather than a PR to avoid conflicting with @di's PR at #386)

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0517/#source-trees defines a new sdist format for use with PEP 517 compatible build frontends.

The relevant specific subsection should be updated to mention the provisional acceptance of that format, but note that publishing tools should still provide setup.py shims for the time-being (since it will be a while before native PEP 517 is widespread in frontends)
