pkg_resources should not depend on setuptools #311

Description

Originally reported by: jaraco (Bitbucket: jaraco, GitHub: jaraco)


With the 8.0 release, and the vendoring of packaging, pkg_resources now imports setuptools, invoking the side effects of importing setuptools. This change violates the implicit expectation that pkg_resources should run independent of setuptools. I missed this violation during my review, but it should be relatively straightforward to correct.
