🛤️ Tracking: Python SDK

[j-lanson]

We want to support a Python SDK for Hipcheck plugin writing, both to increase the accessibility of writing a custom plugin, and to test/ensure that our plugin comms protocol does not make any Rust-specific assumptions. We will first sketch out what a design would look like and create an SDK, then implement the design and test it with a new plugin (likely a dummy plugin). We will also need to ensure we document its usage and establish a release process.

Edit: also look into whether we could use pyo3 to just expose our Rust SDK through Python to avoid a re-write
 

• Research: Python async and gRPC libraries
• Write RFD describing proposed design for Python SDK
• Implement Python SDK RFD
• Create and test dummy plugin using Python SDK
• Document Python SDK on website
• Develop release process for Python SDK
