This removes the old ez_setup.py, which was used ages ago to install
setuptools when missing. This isn't needed anymore, and given that
ez_setup.py has syntax errors on Python 3, it does more harm than
good.

The contrib/internal/release.py has been removed as well. We haven't
used it in years, since we now have our own centralized release
infrastructure.

These files are removed from MANIFEST.in. Newer packaging/build files
in the source tree have been added, ensuring they're in the source
distribution.

Built the source distribution. Saw that it contained all the files that
I expected to see, and didn't contain anything else.

Built egg and wheel packages.
