"Package … is absent from the `packages` configuration" warning for data packages from setuptools

[klemens]

When building current master with python -m build --wheel --no-isolation I get a lot of warning messages from setuptools:

/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/setuptools/command/build_py.py:207: _Warning: Package 'formtools.locale.af.LC_MESSAGES' is absent from the `packages` configuration.
!!

        ********************************************************************************
        ############################
        # Package would be ignored #
        ############################
        Python recognizes 'formtools.locale.af.LC_MESSAGES' as an importable package[^1],
        but it is absent from setuptools' `packages` configuration.

        This leads to an ambiguous overall configuration. If you want to distribute this
        package, please make sure that 'formtools.locale.af.LC_MESSAGES' is explicitly added
        to the `packages` configuration field.

        Alternatively, you can also rely on setuptools' discovery methods
        (for example by using `find_namespace_packages(...)`/`find_namespace:`
        instead of `find_packages(...)`/`find:`).

        You can read more about "package discovery" on setuptools documentation page:

        - https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/package_discovery.html

        If you don't want 'formtools.locale.af.LC_MESSAGES' to be distributed and are
        already explicitly excluding 'formtools.locale.af.LC_MESSAGES' via
        `find_namespace_packages(...)/find_namespace` or `find_packages(...)/find`,
        you can try to use `exclude_package_data`, or `include-package-data=False` in
        combination with a more fine grained `package-data` configuration.

        You can read more about "package data files" on setuptools documentation page:

        - https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/datafiles.html


        [^1]: For Python, any directory (with suitable naming) can be imported,
              even if it does not contain any `.py` files.
              On the other hand, currently there is no concept of package data
              directory, all directories are treated like packages.

There is one warning message for every package directory that contains (only?) data files.
