python3Packages.sly: init at 0.3

[costrouc]

tests will be included with the next release
dabeaz/sly#25
this is why I have not disabled tests (currently they pass with 0
tests run).

Motivation for this change

Saw a great talk on this package. Looking to toy around with an LALR parser.

Even when using fetchFromGitHub, no tests are run. Hence, a checkPhase will have to be added once they are published on PyPI and should be disabled for now.

This has not been addressed.

@dotlambda it is not using fetchFromGitHub it is using fetchPyPi thus on the next release it will be "fixed" and actual tests will run. Are we going to remember when @r-ryantm autoupdates this package to set the checkPhase = true? I don't see any harm in this release running tests and passing with 0 tests run. Maybe I am misunderstanding?

[dotlambda]

You are. I tested this by using fetchFromGitHub and it turned out no tests were run without setting an appropriate checkPhase.

[costrouc]

@dotlambda I have disabled tests via doCheck = false;. Should be ready for merge
