This PR follows up on the original announcement of migrating Requests to be PEP517 compliant backend in 2.33.0. This PR proposes moving to hatchling which has wide adoption, but there's an argument for staying on setuptools. I'd be curious to hear from other maintainers on if there's a strong preference in either direction based on other projects.
@pquentin or @sethmlarson may have input from migrating urllib3 as well. Presumably users with urllib3 2.x are already capable of building with this setup in their environment.
