Remove libraries relying on use_2to3

[mweinelt]

use_2to3 was an automatic translation feature provided by setuptoos to convert python2 to python3 by running 2to3 during the build phase. Projects using it are in fact python2 projects and are mostly unmaintained and should be removed.

The feature itself was removed from setuptools in version 58, which is currently on python-unstable.

setuptools bump has been moved to #155531 from the python-unstable, so that python-unstable isn't blocked by so many hard failures

[jonringer]

parse_type has been resolved: behave/behave#994
