Xuehai Pan 524e827095 [build] modernize build-backend: setuptools.build_meta:__legacy__ -> setuptools.build_meta (#155998) ...

Change `build-system.build-backend`: `setuptools.build_meta:__legacy__` -> `setuptools.build_meta`. Also, move static package info from `setup.py` to `pyproject.toml`.

Now the repo can be installed from source via `pip` command instead of `python setup.py develop`:

```bash
python -m pip install --verbose --editable .

python -m pip install --verbose --no-build-isolation --editable .
```

In addition, the SDist is also buildable:

```bash
python -m build --sdist
python -m install dist/torch-*.tar.gz  # build from source using SDist
```

Note that we should build the SDist with a fresh git clone if we will upload the output to PyPI. Because all files under `third_party` will be included in the SDist. The SDist file will be huge if the git submodules are initialized.
