… ez_setup.py Replace the deprecated ez_setup.py-based setuptools installation example with a modern approach using pip (which is already bootstrapped via ensurepip since Python 3.4). The old example relied on downloading ez_setup.py from bootstrap.pypa.io to install setuptools, which has been deprecated since 2014. The new example demonstrates a cleaner pattern for extending EnvBuilder to pre-install packages using pip subprocess calls.
