This PR changes build process from setuptools to scikit-build-core, where actual build is done by cmake/ninja.
This makes build instructions more straight forward, builds faster and simplifies needed configuration for MSYS.
I dropped paths for Python <3.12. And also STATIC build, as it could be done differently and simpler, when pygame is part of main repo.
If we want to merge it in, I could add documentation on what system libs should be installed (linux and msys), and after libs are installed, simple
uv build --wheel
will produce wheel that could be installed and imported on that machine (but no cross compilation or statically compiled libraries).
