Stop upgrading pip/setuptools on install.

We also no longer upgrade
pip
andsetuptools
. This used to be needed
back when these were heavily transitioning to modern packaging
capabilities in the Python 2 era. Nowadays they do more harm than good,
particularly with somepip
bugs that can remove incorrect versions of
thepipX.Y
scripts.
