Subject: [PATCH] remove unnecessary 'setuptools' dependency (#385)

Contributes to https://github.com/rapidsai/build-planning/issues/62.

It looks like this some of the `kvikio` conda package recipe has an unnecessary dependency on `setuptools`. I suspect that's left over from before the project was cut over to `scikit-build-core`.

This proposes removing it.

## Notes for Reviewers

How I confirmed there were no direct uses of `setuptools` in  this project:

```shell
git grep -i setuptools
```
