Package project, so it can be installed via pip

Hey @g-braeunlich,

Great change. I especially appreciate the MathTextParser fix, that's been bugging me and I almost submitted a PR myself.

Doing a pip install would be a lot easier than relying on the legacy flower format.
I tried out the toml file and it worked on my machine, with a warning.

The only problem is that I think this approach breaks the guidance outlined in the kivy garden docs. The docs state that repos must be archived when upgrading the flower format.

I don't know the exact reasoning behind this rule, but it might have to do with the ambiguous absolute import. If this flower is installed using the legacy format then the import statement is kivy.garden.matplotlib. If the flower is installed using pip then the import statement is kivy_garden.matplotlib.

If one of the maintainers approves this approach, then I have a one more comment:

• The example py files are now broken. You'll need to fix the import statements for them to work with pip.

Thanks a lot for your comments. In this case, I am going to request a new repo and will attempt to migrate it there properly.

Also updated my commits, so the examples work

Hi @g-braeunlich !

Thank you for the friendly ping about this one.
I'm starting the migration, and the new repo will be available in a while.

Can you please consider proposing the changes again when the new repo is ready?

Hi @g-braeunlich,

Please let me know if your PR addresses my Issue kivy-garden/matplotlib#1, which finds a breaking change for matplotlib 3.8.0. Please note that kivy-ios uses matplotlib 3.7.2 and android uses 3.5.2.

@g-braeunlich , @Joshua-Douglas , @tcaduser :

The matplotlib flower has been moved to https://github.com/kivy-garden/matplotlib .
We do not have a release yet, and tests need to be implemented, but at least is a starting point.

(I will slowly move all the still valid issues to the new repo, ASAP)

Feel free to submit your PRs from now on.

@tcaduser My PR does not address your issue. However chances are that my colleague solved that issue.
I will ask him on Monday
