Before we talk FFE, pyspdk looks a bit far away from being something
OpenStack code can depend on. In particular:

- it's not clearly licensed under a supported license (no LICENSE file
in the source code)
- Missing metadata entries in setup.cfg means we are missing a lot of
context information about this library

Those need to be fixed before we can even consider adding this library
to global requirements...
