Python idna package switched to pyproject.toml in commit:
2a00e518ef
which is included in idna v3.4.
When using the old setuptools infra, the package is incorrectly
installed as v0.0, which is then incorrectly detected by other
packages when using setuptools pkg_resources.
The issue can be reproduced with the command:
python3 <<EOF
__requires__ = ["idna >= 2.5"]
import pkg_resources
EOF
which will fail with output:
pkg_resources.ContextualVersionConflict: (idna 0.0.0 (/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages), Requirement.parse('idna>=2.5'), {'hyperlink'})
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'idna>=2.5' distribution was not found and is required by hyperlink
This commit changes _SETUP_TYPE to "flit" to fix this issue.
