The next manylinux specification

I do hope that accepting manylinux2014 won’t kill the motivation towards finding a better way to handle defining manylinxu2019 - I just don’t want to put the design work for that evergreen solution on the critical path for handling the immediate requirement to allow publishers to target manylinux2014 .

On that front, I split out a separate thread to discuss the idea of having packaging.tags and pip look for a dedicated PyPI package that just calculated the appropriate manylinux tags for a target system: Publishing manylinux install tag heuristics as a dedicated PyPI package?
