Move package data rules to pyproject.toml and clean up MANIFEST.in

[p-r-a-v-i-n]

Since pyproject.toml is already used for packaging, I moved the static, template, and locale file rules from MANIFEST.in to pyproject.toml to avoid duplication.

Changes:

• Added package data rules in pyproject.toml
• Added license-files entry for LICENSE.md
• Removed those rules from MANIFEST.in

references:
license
packaging-data

Build tested: source tarball and wheel include the expected files.

Why this regex instead of the following?

license-files = [ "LICENSE.md" ]

[p-r-a-v-i-n]

yes I could have write license-files = [ "LICENSE.md" ]

The reason I used the regular expression LICEN[CS]E* or LICENSE instead of explicitly listing LICENSE.md is for flexibility and future-proofing.

i took inspiration from here, i know for our case it might be over engineered. but if we want more explicit (straightforward) i will update.
