Package no longer installable from pip

**Describe the bug**

cvxpy fails to build when running `pip install cvxpy` on a platform that doesn't supply binaries for the scs dependency.



**To Reproduce**

On an arm mac (M1/M2) in a fresh virtual environment run `pip install cvxpy`



**Expected behavior**

Pip is expected to either download or build the dependencies.



**Output**

We're greeted with

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

**Version**

 - OS: macOS Ventura

 - CVXPY Version: 1.2.2



**Additional context**

The `pip install` approach worked on Friday and was broken due to this https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/3693 issue.

A possible solution would be to pin the setuptools version to <60 per [this comment](https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/22623#issuecomment-1321012633)
