[Bug]: generated venv cannot install anything that requires setuptools

[tellett]

What happened?

First off, thank you for all the effort, this tree looks very promising.

After pulling together a few small tweaks to get the virtual environments set up, I ran into an issue that's likely to take longer than I have time for. What I'm seeing is that any package I try to install that requires setuptools (at least I assume) appears to break, not sure why. As an example here is me trying to install pyright into the venv so I can set up code completion in my editor (same issue for python-lsp-server). Perhaps this is related to the other wheel bugs reported against the venv rules?

Note that after adding --strip-extras to pip-compile, and --no-deps to the pip install command I was able to progress further into installing my repos requirements into the virtual environment, but am currently blocked by this.
