This is a bugfix release that aims to improve compatibility and completeness
of the various Kiva backends. In particular, there are improvements for font
selection and rendering, and some fixes for path and curve rendering
(particularly for arcs). There are still some discrepancies in how things are
drawn, but it is more likely that something reasonable will be produced on all
backends.

This also includes some fixes provided by Brecht Machiels to return the
wxPython backend to a working condition.

On the build and CI front, we have added SWIG to the pyproject.toml, and no
longer ship any Cython-generated C++ files. With these changes it should be
possible to pip install Enable in an environment with the appropriate C/C++
compilers.
