scripts/make-release: fix PyPI upload by using twine
Upload via 'python2 setup.py sdist upload' is deprecated.
Worse, for unknown reasons it stopped working for 0.4, even though 0.3 did
pretty much the same.
Following output was given:
WARNING: Uploading via this command is deprecated, use twine to upload
instead (
https://pypi.org/p/twine/)

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc5 in position
825: ordinal not in range(128)
The error is pointing to a unicode character in the README.rst file.
The proposed 'twine' command does not have this problem. As it seems that
this is the future, we won't waste more time investigating the problem with
'sdist upload', and start using twine from now on.
