building nvmetcli in buildroot

Hello,

I would like to embed nvmetcli into a buildroot project of mine. So I
wrote the first patch (0001-package-add-nvmetcli-package.patch) to
include the nvmetcli as a package .

However this doesn't work well because the setup.cfg from your tree
ends up causing buildroot to try to copy nvmetcli.py to the *HOST*
/usr/sbin.

I looked around other python packages built in my configuration and
no-one seems to use the same "install_scripts" keyword.

So I made the second patch (0001-build-remove-setup.cfg.patch) which
applies against the current nvmetcli tree. With this one, buildroot
does work but the script is placed into /usr/bin.

I wonder if this patch could be applied to your tree or if a better
solution exists.
