Simplify installation process #7

Description

@thiagowinkler

Demand:

The current dependencies of the Python Client are:

  • LibCoreClient
  • QuickFIX (because it is a dependency of LibCoreClient)
  • pybind11
    It is easy to install the Python Client with python setup.py install as long as you have these three dependencies already installed in the target system. We should make this process easier.

Expected Solution:

We need to distribute the compiled version of these libraries along with the Python Client. Adding them to the repository and to the installation script should suffice.

Note: setup.py does nothing more than to call CMake with the CMakeLists.txt file of the project. So we can use CMake to install the compiled libraries.

Note 2: We need versions of the compiled libraries for every target OS (Ubuntu 18.04, macOS 14 and Windows 10).
