Updating python3-setuptools in EPEL7

[Orion Poplawski]

I'd like to update python3-setuptools from 19.6.2 to something newer (at
least 20.8.1 but hopefully much later) without breaking the world.
However, I don't have much experience with possible setuptools breakage.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'd do it in copr and mass rebuild everything (all python3 packages) in
it. If it works, I'd assume it is safe.

If there are FTBFS, I'd investigate if they are setuptools related.
Feel free o bring any possible setuptools related problems here so we
can all try to figure them out.
