PyMuPDF branch for 1.20.0 release candidates

[julian-smith-artifex-com]

I've just pushed some commits to a new branch 1.20.0rc.

This branch will hopefully be copied onto the master branch very soon for an official release of PyMuPDF-1.20.0.

The branch contains some changes to PyMuPDF that allow it to work with the recently-released MuPDF-1.20.0.

It also has some changes to the setup.py script to simplify some aspects of how we build wheels for PyMuPDF. In particular, setup.py now contains a hard-coded URL for the specific release of MuPDF that we require. By default we always use the MuPDF from this URL when creating an sdist or building PyMuPDF (e.g. into a wheel). See comments at top of setup.py for more information.

The 1.20.0rc branch has a release candidate tag 1.20.0rc1. Wheels for this have been uploaded to pypi.org and can be installed withpip install pymupdf==1.20.0rc1 (pypi will continue to install PyMuPDF-1.19.6 by default until we release 1.20.0).

Thanks,

- Julian
