bpo-38914 Do not require email field in setup.py. (GH-17388)
When checking `setup.py` and when the `author` field was provided, but the `author_email` field was missing, erroneously a warning message was displayed that the `author_email` field is required. The specs do not require the `author_email`field: https://packaging.python.org/specifications/core-metadata/#author The same is valid for `maintainer` and `maintainer_email`. The warning message has been adjusted. modified: Doc/distutils/examples.rst modified: Lib/distutils/command/check.py https://bugs.python.org/issue38914
