Before:
- if `wheel` was not already installed, then `get-pip.py` would
automatically install the latest version on PyPI, which is `0.34.2`
(or `0.33.6` for Python 3.4).
- if `wheel` was already installed, then it was left unchanged
regardless of the version installed.
Now:
- if `wheel` is not already installed, then the same versions will be
installed as before, except these versions are pinned and will now not
change unexpectedly after future `wheel` releases.
- if `wheel` is already installed, then it's upgraded/downgraded to the
target version as needed.
Partly addresses #1000, though this change only helps builds where the
pip/setuptools/wheel install flow is triggered (currently only new apps
or ones where Python was purged or pip was not the correct version).
Since the wheel version is now known, it's output to the build log to
ease debugging and for parity with pip/setuptools.
The rest of #1000 will be fixed in later commits.
Since:
* "explicit is better than implicit"
* we'll soon be upgrading setuptools, and debugging breakage caused by
upgrades will be easier if versions are visible in the build log
