[ITP] python-configobj 5.0.6 (4.7.2 is in Cygwin Ports)

[Mike DePaulo]

This package is currently in Cygwin Ports at version 4.7.2-2, as well
as in major distros like Fedora & Debian.

The 5.0.x series has a new upstream. They also removed the PKG-INFO file.

It is a dependency of package terminator, which is currently in an ITP
state from Cygwin Ports also.

The sources on PyPI -- which you get if you drop SRC_URI -- still have it.

Besides that, please add ARCH=noarch to the .cygport so this is uploaded 
correctly with cygport 0.22.0, then its GTG.

BTW, it would be great if you would maintain python3-configobj as well; 
just change NAME and inherit python3-distutils instead.
