This is a backport of PR #6400 as merged into master (e1ed247).

This does not affect source distributions, and Cython sources (.pyx) are
still installed.

What do these changes do?

Prevent C sources (_find_header.c, _find_header.h, _helpers.c, _http_parser.c, _http_writer.c, and _websocket.c) from being included in binary distributions such as wheels, without affecting Cython sources (_cparser.pxd, _find_header.pxd, _headers.pxi, _helpers.pyx, _http_parser.pyx, _http_writer.pyx, and _websocket.pyx) or source distributions.

Are there changes in behavior for the user?

Nothing changes except that the binary wheels are much smaller because they do not contain ~1.7MB of C sources.

Related issue number

Resolves #6399.
