Replacing Platform compatibility tags entirely
----------------------------------------------

Technically, it would be entirely possible to convey the information
currently passed via the Platform compatibility tags via variant
properties, and remove these explicit tags from the filename. However,

filenames for wheels that do not need additional variants, as we do not
believe that the effort required to update all the existing workflows
justifies the benefit of more compact, and slightly more consistent
naming.
