[Debian-astro-maintainers] Bug#1025395: poliastro: please migrate away from pybuild's flit plugin to pybuild's generic pyproject plugin

Dear maintainer,

As you may have seen, pybuild has been supporting building with PEP-612 
style pyproject.toml files via a generic plugin 
(pybuild-plugin-pyproject) for a while now.

As such, we are looking forward the deprecation of pybuild's flit plugin 
in time for the Bookworm freeze.

This package is one of the last ones still using the flit plugin and 
we're asking you to migrate away from it.

Here's an example of how you can migrate to the generic pyproject plugin:

https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/jeepney/-/commit/4448aa88308edde244d43595341b00f53312dd84

In theory, it works as well (or better) than the dedicated flit plugin 
and there should be no regressions.

Cheers,
