setup: use setuptools on Windows (issue5400) We've had a long, complicated history with setuptools. We want to make it the universal default. But when we do, it breaks things. `python setup.py build` is broken on Windows today. Forcing the use of setuptools via FORCE_SETUPTOOLS=1 unbreaks things. Since the previous bustage with making setuptools the default was on !Windows, it seems safe to move ahead with the setuptools transition on Windows. So this patch does that.

Our full contribution guidelines are in our wiki, please see:

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
