+- Update to 72.1.0:
+  * Restore the tests command and deprecate access to the module.
+  * Added return types to typed public functions.
+  * Removed lingering unused code around Distribution._patched_dist.
+  * Reset the backports module when enabling vendored packages.
+  * Include all vendored files in the sdist.
+  * Restored package data that went missing in 71.0. This change also
+    incidentally causes tests to be installed once again.
+  * Now setuptools declares its own dependencies in the core extra.
+    Dependencies are still vendored for bootstrapping purposes, but
+    setuptools will prefer installed dependencies if present. The core
+    extra is used for informational purposes and should *not* be declared
+    in package metadata (e.g. build-requires).
+  * Support for loading distutils from the standard library is now
+    deprecated, including use of SETUPTOOLS_USE_DISTUTILS=stdlib and
+    importing distutils before importing setuptools.
+  * Fix distribution name normalisation for valid versions that are not
+    canonical (e.g. 1.0-2).

     + Updated and removed obsolete Python < 3.8 code and comments.
