setup.py build documentation/implemantation for windows uses deprecated python setup.py install

What happened?

in the https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda-build/en/stable/user-guide/tutorials/build-pkgs.html#writing-the-build-script-files-build-sh-and-bld-bat

you describe

"%PYTHON%" setup.py install
if errorlevel 1 exit 1

but that call is deprecated, https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/discussions/setup-py-deprecated/

I am not sure if only the documentation has it old style. Please have a look.

In linux new style works, in windows not.

This is an example for this problem https://github.com/Open-MSS/MSS/tree/develop/localbuild

We need to use a https://github.com/Open-MSS/MSS/blob/develop/localbuild/bld.bat with %PYTHON% setup.py install --single-version-externally-managed --record record.txt and can't build by %PYTHON% -m pip install . --no-deps -vv

Let me know if I can improve our build or if you need further informations.
