Raise the minimum setuptools version to 66.1.0 (#81341)

* Raise the minimum setuptools version to 66.1.0

This is the first version to support Python 3.12.

While Python 3.10 and 3.11 could use an older version, a consistent minimum is easier to work with and test against.

* Fix PEP 517 integration test
