I would *not* recommend putting C libraries in Python packages. First of all, it doesn't really make sense (if it has nothing to do with Python, it should not be a Python package). Second, the Python build system cannot handle it. Technically speaking, you could do it: you could have a setup.py file executing arbitrary commands to build and install the library. But I have never seen that done.
I hope it is fine to add Cython headers for it in src/sage/libs
No, that is *not* fine. If it's an independent package, it has absolutely no business in installing stuff between the Sage sources.
