Research direction
Check the repository's build metadata to find where setuptools is declared, then review the linked context about pip 21.3 and editable installs. Confirm that removing the dependency leaves regular and editable installation working, and update the relevant configuration or tests if needed.

Description
via https://github.com/tmux-python/libtmux/pull/493 by @tjni:
This was added in https://github.com/tmux-python/libtmux/commit/3bc03fbcaa0c9d7719d9c537645d299b016f8d36 to support pip install -e . but I noticed that (per https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry/issues/34#issuecomment-1193722065), this is fixed in pip >= 21.3.
For context, I am working on this package in nixpkgs and investigating if setuptools is really needed as a build dependency.
