This is causing the CI failure since Python 3.6 does not support setuptools > 60.10.

Hm... do you plan to keep support for Python 3.6?

We should probably drop support for 3.6, but would want to do that simultaneously for all of snappy's various components. I suggest changing to setuptools>=59.6 unless you're using some newer feature.

Support for metadata in pyproject.toml was added in setuptools 61 I think,
and the [tool.setuptools] section is out of beta only since 68.1.0.

There's no urgency here.
