Update license field to use {text = "MPL-2.0"} format and lower setuptools
requirement to >=60 to support Python 3.7 and 3.8.
Background:
- setuptools 70.0.0 dropped Python 3.7 support
- setuptools 76.0.0 dropped Python 3.8 support
- setuptools 77.0.0 introduced SPDX string format (license = "MPL-2.0")
- Previous requirement of setuptools>=80 was incompatible with Python 3.7/3.8
The SPDX string format is only available in setuptools>=77, which doesn't
support Python 3.7/3.8. This fix uses the {text = "..."} table format which
works across all setuptools versions (60+).
Note: setuptools>=77 will still show a deprecation warning for the table
format, but this is unavoidable while maintaining Python 3.7/3.8 support.
The {text = "..."} format is preferred over {file = "..."} as it directly
specifies the license identifier.
Changes:
- setuptools>=80 → setuptools>=60 (supports Python 3.7+)
- license = {file = "LICENSE"} → license = {text = "MPL-2.0"}
