Wheel support

Right now, only the tar.gz file is being distributed on PyPI for mockredispy, which isn't that much of an issue, but it does add some time to installing the package.

This package should be compatible with the Wheel format, considering it doesn't appear to have any C dependencies and it is compatible with both Python 2 and 3. As a result, you should only need to generate a universal wheel and then everyone (on all systems) will get the ability to install mockredispy with just the wheel, without having to do any extra work.

Actually, mockredispy does have a C dependency: lua.

As far as I can tell, mockredispy itself does not directly have the C dependency. It's the package lunatic-python-bugfix that does, which is not affected by using a wheel for mockredispy.

Oh, good point. I forgot there was a lower library for that.
