Python wrapper package for precompiled Bootstrap assets

[MaximilianClemens]

Description

A trivial change to make the precompiled CSS and JS files available for Python projects.

Motivation & Context

The motivation behind this change is to avoid having to manually update the assets (CSS + JS) in my FastAPI application. By integrating these assets as a dependency, users will always have access to the latest version automatically.

Trivial perhaps, but adding it here means we're maintaining it. I'm not so sure about adding this to our project at this point. Could this be a separate repo and dependency that consumes the upstream project? I'd be happy to see that in the @twbs org.
