Unable to pip install 1.8.7 -- ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy'

Seems like a regression may have been introduced over the last version. This error happens even if I have numpy installed in the venv.

      hint: This usually indicates a problem with the package or the build environment.

Yes, another user noticed that this morning too, I've started migrating to a cleaner pyproject.toml packaging, but since tofu has compiled code it's not trivial, and I'm still in my learning curve, so I let something slip clearly
I'll reverse shortly, should be fix over the course of the week or so, thanks for the feedback and tracability 👍
