Description

The pkg_resources module is provided by setuptools.
The setuptools package is not part of the Python stdlib but is often available in the system environment as a build-time requirement.

Explicitly listing setuptools as a requirement protects opentelemetry-python from breaking with import errors in cases where setuptools is not available system-wide.

This commit pins the version to setuptools >= 16.0 which is the first release that includes the required imports (2015).
A similar change was adopted in opentelemetry-python-contrib.

Fixes #2282

Should "setuptools" be a runtime dependency of opentelemetry-api and opentelemetry-sdk?
