Description
Uploading the dist directory to PyPi in response to a new release using GH Actions is a common workflow.
Hence, having the ability to generate the dist directory without uploading it to PyPI would be useful.
While nbdev_pypi both creates and uploads, perhaps we could add a nbdev_dist command to address this?

Research direction
Start by tracing the existing nbdev_pypi command and how the GH Actions workflow handles the dist directory. Define the separate nbdev_dist command's scope, then verify that it generates the distribution without uploading it to PyPI while preserving the existing upload behavior.
