Install only VTK < 9.3 because of errors associated with VTK's latest update in the current Mayavi (4.8.1; see enthought/mayavi#1286).
Mayavi gives an error when running with TraitsUI 8 (see enthought/mayavi#1260). A workaround has been to set the `ETS_TOOLKIT="qt4"` environment variable, which worked on testing in macOS but not in Windows. As another workaround, set the `ETSConfig.toolkit` configuration instead, which avoids needing to set an environment variable and also works for Windows.
