Consider using github actions for building python wheels and more (aka. Transition from Travis)

    Description

      Context on the mailing list: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r4a7d34e64a34e9fe589d06aec74d9b464d252c516fe96c35b2d6c9ae%40%3Cdev.beam.apache.org%3E

      github actions instead of travis to for building python wheels during releases. This will have the following advantages:

      • We will eliminate one repo. (If you don't know, we have https://github.com/apache/beam-wheels for the sole purpose of building wheels file.)
      • Workflow will be stored in the same repo. This will prevent bit rot that is only discovered at release times. (happened a few times, although usually easy to fix.)
      • github actions supports ubuntu, mac, windows environments. We could try to build wheels for windows as well. (Travis also supports the same environments but we only use linux and mac environments. Maybe there are other blockers for building wheels for Windows.)
      • We could do more, like daily python builds.
