With the `setup.py` file included in this example, the `pip install` command will
invoke CMake and build the pybind11 module as specified in `CMakeLists.txt`.
## Development
Do this before running to make sure Python can manipulate bpf programs without sudo
```bash
sudo setcap cap_bpf,cap_sys_admin+ep /usr/bin/python3.12
```
## Building the documentation
The documentation here is still boilerplate.
