to get rid of an error about failing to find numpy/arrayobject.h
to generate model.c and kept Extension to avoid the numpy/arrayobject.h not found error.

When I followed the instructions in code/README.md and attempted to compile the model like this:
python setup.py build_ext --inplace
I got this error:

The word on the street at stackoverflow is that include_dirs sometimes gets ignored in the latest version of distutils, see dashesy's comment here:

I decided to try using Extension in setup.py to specify include_dirs and it worked! If someone could be so kind as to try this out and confirm it works for them as well then this change should be merged into the repo so others do not have to repeat this debugging process.
